The Health Act 2004 provided for the Health Service Executive, which was established on 1 January 2005. Under the Act, the executive has the responsibility to manage and deliver or arrange to be delivered on its behalf, health and personal social services. This includes responsibility for the application of employment legislation to its employees. Accordingly, my Department has requested the acting national director of human resources at the HSE to investigate the matter raised and to reply directly to the Deputy.
