View answerThe legislation to establish an independent Board for the HSE is being drafted as a priority and the Minister expects to publish the Bill in July. The Minister hopes to have cross-party support to bring the Bill through the Oireachtas as quickly as possible to ensure its early passage, subject to the legislative schedule. He intends to establish the Board once the legislation has been passed.
