As part of a HSE wide initiative to improve governance arrangements for the funding of Non-Statutory Agencies, a national framework has been developed which will ensure a consistent approach.
This Framework seeks to provide a level of governance, which will link funding provided to a quantum of service, and provides for these services to be linked to quality standards, with continuous monitoring to ensure equity, efficiency and effective use of available resources.
A critical element of the Framework is the use of standard documentation to formalise the funding arrangements. This documentation is available for download under the following headings.
Section 38 Documentation
Section 39 Documentation
For-Profit Documentation
Out-of-State Documentation
Home Support Services Documentation
