View answerThe Review of the contractual arrangements for the provision of services under the General Medical Services and other related schemes for the delivery of public health services by General Practitioners under the auspices of the Labour Relations Commission is ongoing. It is my desire that the outcome of the Review should be a set of contractual arrangements which will facilitate the delivery of a modern, efficient, cost-effective and high quality service, in line with national policy on primary care.
