Two years ago, the Dáil referred the Patient Safety (Notifiable Patient Safety Incidents) Bill 2019 for Committee Stage consideration by the health committee. This new law will provide for mandatory open disclosure in the case of serious medical mistakes.

Sadly, the pandemic and the cyberattack have been used in some instances to justify the continuation of this practice. My question to the Taoiseach is when will Committee Stage of this vital Bill be taken?
