Deputy Richard Bruton asked the Minister for Health the number of private residents, that is, non-healthcare workers, who have completed a course of training certified by PHECC under SI 449 2015, in order that they may hold and administer adrenaline in community settings, as was intended by the 2015 measure.

Minister for Health

The Pre-Hospital Emergency Care Council (PHECC) is the independent statutory body with responsibility for standards, training and education in pre-hospital emergency care, including in the administration of medicinal products. Accordingly, I have asked PHECC to respond directly to the Deputy in the matter, as soon as possible.
