Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department is engaged in policy development and implementation across the full spectrum of issues that impact health and wellbeing in Ireland. To support the Deputy I have listed below the new policy introduced by my Department in the last year which mark significant milestones in the development of health policy for Ireland.
