“Considerable work is already underway in the HSE to prepare for the introduction of a PrEP programme that meets appropriate standards. I encourage interested parties and members of the public to give their feedback on the draft report during the consultation process which runs to 28th of May, and I thank HIQA and the various experts and stakeholders for their work so far. I look forward to receiving HIQA’s formal advice when the report is finalised after the consultation process.”
