Ceisteanna (802)

Jonathan O'Brien

Ceist:

802. Deputy Jonathan O'Brien asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the HSE Garda vetting unit has advised this Deputy that they will not be carrying out Garda vetting on transport providers or drivers in view of the fact that they are not direct employees of the HSE; if his attention has been further drawn to the fact that it has advised that it is up to the transport providers to supply Garda vetting to the HSE when contracts are being signed; the options available to persons that will be working with the HSE but will not be direct employees; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am advised by the Garda Authorities that in accordance with the provisions of section 12 of the National Vetting Bureau (Children and Vulnerable Persons) Act 2012-2016 it is a matter for a relevant organisation, in this case the HSE, entering into a contract for services for relevant work to secure vetting disclosures.
