Brennan slams failure to implement health reforms
The author of one of three reports on reform of the Irish health service has criticised the Government’s failure to hire the people needed to drive the proposed reforms.
Professor Niamh Brennan said the Government had vowed to appoint an implementation steering group three months ago, but has so far failed to do so.
Prof Brennan said she had also telephoned the Department of Health more than a week ago to inquire about the progress being made, but nobody has yet called her back.
