Under Section 37 of the Health Act, 2004, the Health Service Executive must submit a copy of the Annual Report to my Department within 21 days of its adoption by the Board. The Annual Report was submitted in line with this legislation on 11 May, 2007. Under Section 37 (4) of the Health Act, 2004, it is my responsibility to 'ensure that copies of the Annual Report are laid before each House of the Oireachtas'. I wish to inform the Deputy that the Annual Report was laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas on 1 June, 2007.
