Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 10 October 2012
226. Deputy Billy Kelleher asked the Minister for Health if he has met Health Information and Quality Authority recently and if they had particular areas of concern; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [43525/12]
View answerI last met with the Chairperson and the Chief Executive Officer of the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) on 20th July 2012. I would expect to have a further meeting before the end of the year. A range of important issues, which are of mutual concern, are discussed at these meetings. Outside of my formal meetings with HIQA, my officials are in regular contact with HIQA to deal with and progress the range of issues that arise.
