1584. To ask the Minister for Health if the proposed role of professorship of public health strategy and leadership at Trinity College, Dublin will be proceeded with; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20227/22]

The establishment of a professorship within Trinity College Dublin is a matter for the University itself as an autonomous Higher Education institution that controls its own staffing requirements and academic affairs.  The Minister for Health has no role in deciding on these matters.
