Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 6 March 2024
221. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Health when the replies will issue to Parliamentary Question Nos. 1265 of 7 November 2023 and 494 of 7 February 2024 (details supplied); if he will take this matter up with the HSE; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11045/24]
View answerAs this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Deputy as soon as possible.
As the Deputy may be aware, management and administrative grade staff in the Fórsa union in the HSE commenced industrial action on Friday, 6 October. As a consequence of this industrial action, members in these grades were not engaging with political forums or processes. As a result, the question asked by the Deputy may be delayed in receiving a response directly from the HSE.
