Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 November 2023
581. Deputy Carol Nolan asked the Minister for Health if his Department has or is planning to conduct a risk assessment on the recently announced recruitment freeze within the HSE; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [51111/23]
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 not in a position to answer PQs due to industrial action. It is hoped that normal services will resume soon. In the meantime, this Department will continue to refer PQs to HSE for their direct reply as soon as possible.
