The Department of Health is extending its public consultation periods on reshaping stroke and breast assessment care.
It follows a number of requests from the public.
The consultation closing dates have now been moved back to 30th August.
The Department says it "has repeatedly made clear that it wants as many people as possible to take part in these important consultations.
"The extensions announced today underline that commitment".

Meanwhile, the Department has also announced that the postponed engagement event in Newtownards last night on reshaping care has been rescheduled.
It will now take place on Monday 29th July in the Queens Hall, Newtownards at 7pm.
A spokesperson says, "The Department reiterates its apology for the circumstances that led to the postponement of the Newtownards engagement event on July 24."
