1044. To ask the Minister for Health the person that needs to be contacted in relation to the tendering process for health screening of staff in Government Buildings; when the screening is due; if there is a specific person in each Department that needs to be contacted; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1003 and 1044 together.
The Civil Service Occupational Health Department (CSOHD) has direct responsibility for the provision of an occupational health service to civil servants. This may include the direct provision of workplace health promotion and basic screening. It is a matter for each individual Department to decide whether to offer such a service and make any necessary arrangements. The CSOHD carried out health screening for employees of my Department earlier this year and therefore no tendering process was required in our case.
