In common with acute hospitals and a variety of other health care facilities, drug treatment centres are not currently subject to statutory licensing or registration. However I have asked the Health Service Executive to advise me on the protocols or other arrangements that it has in place with regard to treatment centres that it funds and I will forward this information to the Deputy as soon as possible.
