Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 9 July 2008
184 Deputy James Reilly asked the Minister for Health and Children the number of cases in which the Health Service Executive assigned its functions in regard to reviewing a recommendation, made by a complaints officer, to another body; the identity of the body to which it has assigned such functions under section 49(4) of the regulation; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [28073/08]
View answerOperational responsibility for the management and delivery of health and personal social services was assigned to the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. Therefore the Executive is the appropriate body to consider the particular matter raised by the Deputy. My Department has requested that the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive investigate the matter and reply directly to the Deputy.
