Irish Medicines Board (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2005: Committee Stage.
4:00 pm
Tim O'Malley (Limerick East, Progressive Democrats)
I do not have the regulation on the powers of the Irish Medicines Board but they have existed from the time of the National Drugs Advisory Board. There has been no addition to or diminution in those powers. Senator Browne is incorrect to say that this further diminishes the powers of the Department. The Department of Health and Children makes decisions for the Government on policy.
