The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland’s national consultation activities on the development of the new code of professional conduct and ethics have been temporarily deferred. The deferral is related to the delay in the establishment of a Board.  The Executive is currently working on an implementation plan for Board functions and associated projects as a result of the Nurses and Midwives Act of 2011. 

The details about the revised dates for the Code consultation period will be circulated in the near future on our website and ezine.  Any comments on the Code project can be emailed to reviewofcode@nmbi.ie.
