Law of 9 October 2008, laying down provisions on public health care (Public Health Act)

We Beatrix, at the grace of God, Queen of the Netherlands, Princess of Orange-Nassau, etc. etc. etc.

All of them, who will see or hear these, saluut! do know:

In this regard, we have considered that, in order to implement the revised International Health Regulations and to be more prepared for infectious disease crises, it is desirable to lay down rules for the control of infection in the area of infection prevention. It is desirable to bring these rules together with the existing provisions into a single law so as to create a coherent whole; whereas that is why it is necessary to implement these rules in a single law; Collective prevention of public health law , the Infectious disease law and the Quarantine Act may be withdrawn and replaced by a public health law; whereas it is also appropriate to include in this law a provision on compulsory digital data storage in the implementation of the youth health service;

In this way, we, the Council of State, and with the mean consultations of the States-General, have been well-regarded and understood to be right and to be understood by the following:
