Image: LEAH FARRELL THE CHIEF MEDICAL officer has put the delay in publishing minutes of meetings held with members of the National Public Health Emergency Team down to a “workload issue”.
“It’s just a workload issue and trying to prioritise as much as possible, we’re committed to the principle of transparency. What has to happen now is that some of those sets of minutes which are written, need to be circulated and discussed at the regular meeting, which would be normal course with any committee and approved for publication.”
