Minister for Health welcomes first annual report of the National Screening Advisory Committee (NSAC)
The Minister for Health, Stephen Donnelly TD, has today welcomed the publication of the Annual Report 2020 by the National Screening Advisory Committee (NSAC).
The NSAC is an expert independent committee which advises the Minister for Health about new national population screening programmes, or changes to existing programmes. It plays a vital role in ensuring that our screening programmes are in line with best international practice, and that any changes to programmes are made in a robust, evidence-based and transparent manner.
This first annual report details the activities and progress achieved by the NSAC since its establishment in late 2019 and outlines some of the key priorities for 2021.
