Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

Role and Functions: All Ireland Institute of Hospice and Palliative Care

10:40 am

Ms Karen Charnley:

I might refer back to Deputy Conlan with further information on the cross-Border area. Senator Moran referred to the North Louth Hospice in Dundalk and the area hospice in Newry. I will refer back to the committee on the gaps across the services. In Northern Ireland, the Transforming Your Palliative and End of Life Care programme, which is being run from Marie Curie Cancer Care, is looking at that in terms of what the gaps are and specific projects that can be taken forward in Northern Ireland to improve the services. Obviously, there is work within the Republic, but I will refer back to the members with more detail.

Will Senator Moran repeat her question?
