Patrick O'Donovan

Ceist:

384. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Health following the announcement of the ending of the moratorium on recruitment in the public service, if employees in the Health Service Executive on flexitime will be entitled to get back the additional hours they have had in the past or if this announcement only relates to new employees; if any additional hours that are being added to make up annual leave for these staff can be taken back; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I assume that the Deputy is referring to the additional hours required under the Haddington Road Agreement. This Agreement is due to run for 3 years from July 2013 and there are no plans to amend the Agreement at this time.

The Agreement allows for significant productivity increases to meet demands particularly on front line services.
