Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 June 2014
196. Deputy Michael Moynihan asked the Minister for Health if the Nurses Act 1985 gave An Bord Altranais the authority to change the quorum requirements for a fitness to practise hearing without prior approval from him. [27615/14]
View answerSection 13(8) of the Nurses Act 1985 allows An Bord Altranais agus Cnáimhseachais na hÉireann, or An Bord Altranais as it was then known, regulate the procedures of all committees established under Section 13, including the Fitness to Practise Committee and also allows all such committees regulate their own procedures. This would include setting a quorum for each committee.
