Regarding the same Minister's portfolio and promised legislation from the Department of Health and Children, I note the recent statement that the HSE is considering the establishment of what has been described as four so-called mini-health boards. Does that change require legislation? Is the Tánaiste aware whether legislation is being drafted to facilitate such a change and, if so, when will that proposition come before Members in legislative form in the Houses of the Oireachtas?
