Written answers

Minister for Health

Responsibility for the regulation and registration of nurses and midwives in Ireland rests with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI).

As the recognition of applications for nurses and midwives sits with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland (NMBI), I have referred the question to the NMBI for its attention and direct response to the Deputy.
