Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Working Group on Access to Contraception: Discussion
Mr. Andrew Conlon:
The Minister has indicated that he would like something in 2021. He is genuinely keen, as is the Department, and as am I as an official, to hear the views of this committee. By being here this morning we are progressing this issue. The Department is also very much engaged at this time of year in setting its priorities and allocating its own internal resources. The management board, the Secretary General and the Minister are having those discussions about the priorities for the Department over the next 12 months.
