Lindsay Tribunal Report: Motion.

 

The Government has given an undertaking to work in partnership with the Irish Haemophilia Society and treating clinicians to ensure the highest standards. That is significant because when all of this started in the 1980s, there was not that type of co-ordination among clinicians, the consumers of products and the Government but we are all in this together. From now on there will not be anybody arbitrarily selecting products on their own. We set up a blood products group over a year ago on an ad hoc basic and we are committed to doing that on a statutory basis. Again, we are working with the Irish Haemophilia Society.
