Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 29 June 2021
521. Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Health the number of hospital porters employed at St. James’s Hospital, Dublin 8; if there is a panel in place to fill casual vacancies that might arise; if there was a recent recruitment process; and if so, if that process is now completed.

View answerAs this Parliamentary Question relates to an operational issue, it is a matter for the HSE. However, members of the Oireachtas are advised that the HSE is currently unable to access the information to answer Parliamentary Questions due to the recent cyber-attack, which has required a temporary shut-down of HSE IT systems. The disruption to service is on-going, and the HSE is working hard to restore its IT capacity and resume normal services. Members of the Oireachtas will be advised as soon as the HSE is again in a position to provide responses to PQs and are encouraged to resubmit their Parliamentary Questions at that point.
