Fear That Consumer Representation May Be Weakened!

The consultative document 'Developing Better Services' was issued by the former Minister Bairbre de Brún in June 2002.

It outlines plans for changes to the arrangements for acute hospitals and includes a proposal to replace the four Health and Social Services Boards with a single regional authority.

In its response to this document the Council outlines its fears that support for patients and service users may be weakened in the planned re-organisation of the health and social services structures.
