Written Answers. - St. Bricin's Hospital (Dublin) Dispute.
636.
I am not aware of any threatened strike action by ancillary staff at St. Bricin's Military Hospital, Infirmary Road, Dublin. However, arising from a claim on behalf of maids, wardsmaids and cook employed at the hospital for payment of a travelling allowance their union indicated that its members had entered into a trade dispute with the Department. The claim has since been further considered and an offer made to the union.
