Abolition of the HSE

Summary

Robert Dowds asks about legislation abolishing the Health Service Executive, citing unanswered parliamentary questions. The Tánaiste says the HSE Governance Bill awaits Second Stage and blames inherited structures for delays.

I ask the Tánaiste about legislation to abolish the Health Service Executive with my latest frustration with that organisation in view. Questions I asked on 9 October have not been answered by it.

Comment on this

The Health Service Executive Governance Bill is awaiting Second Stage. The difficulty with awaiting answers to parliamentary questions is a legacy of the structures that were put in place by the previous Government. We are dismantling those now.
