The HSE National Service Plan 2022 has been submitted and is under consideration in my Department. In the coming weeks, although not required by legislation, it is intended that it will be brought to Government prior to publication, however this is subject to further consideration.

Subsequently, it will be laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas and published. The National Service Plan must be laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas within 21 days of its approval. Once the service plan is laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas, the HSE will ensure it is published at the earliest possible time.
