Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs
General Scheme of the Miscellaneous Provisions (Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union on 29 March 2019) Bill 2019: Minister for Children and Youth Affairs
Mr. Cormac Quinlan:
As in any placement, we would still meet all of the regulatory requirements.
On contracts, if it is with a private provider, that would be covered under any of our contracts individually regarding any of those individual placements.
On matters concerning insurance or payments, we would cover those through the normal procedures regarding any contract. The contract could include provisions for information sharing in that context if it needed to do so. We would still govern and support all of those placements and meet our requirements for the child’s placement.
