The Department is of the belief that the existing model is underpinned by legislation and it fits well. Both the legislation and the service level agreement between the IHRB and HRI provide a solid framework on which to base the regulation of the industry. It is acknowledged that governance practices in all organisations should be reviewed and developed. To that end, the Department has requested the IHRB to comply with the stringent codes of practice for the governance of State bodies.
