In 2019, Mazars conducted a review of the governance structures around the HSE's drug reimbursement process. The report was submitted to my Department in January 2020.

The report was under consideration by officials earlier this year; however, this work stream was temporarily suspended to reallocate resources to support essential services during the Department's efforts to combat COVID-19.

It would not be appropriate to publish this report before it can be adequately examined by my officials and the relevant personnel in the HSE.
