PQ 112
243 Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Health and Children the reason the Health Service Executive and the Health Information and Quality Authority are not carrying out the portable appliance test of all moveable electrical equipment in offices, hospitals, centres and so on as required by the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulation S.I. No. 299 of 2007, to ensure the safety and welfare of both employees and employers; if her attention has been drawn to the fact that records of all such tests must be kept for at least five years to allow the Health and Safety Authority to carry out random spot checks and that insurance companies and underwriters are already seeking proof of compliance prior to renewal of policies; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
