The Ministry of Health confirms that the Ambulance services remain subordinate and that speculation about their transfer to the DSU is based on a working document.

Health Ministry officials stress that speculation about the reorganization of Ambulance services is based on an internal draft and does not reflect a final decision. Cooperation with the DSU will continue operationally, but ambulances will not be transferred. The health system reform will include reorganizations, but medical staff and quality of services will not be affected. The ministry urges an end to speculation that hinders the progress of reforms.
