Ceisteanna (226)

David Cullinane

Ceist:

226. Deputy David Cullinane asked the Minister for Health the number of persons in the Be on Call for Ireland pool; the number who have been assigned or placed in services; the number of staff hired through Be on Call for Ireland with HSE contracts; the number with agency or temporary contracts; the reason staff are being hired as agency or temporary staff when there is a demonstrated need for them to be employed as HSE staff; if his Department is seeking to avoid employer obligations by hiring staff as temporary or agency staff; if all employed to tackle the Covid-19 pandemic are working on valid contracts; the number who are working on temporary contracts which have expired; if he can guarantee that not a single worker brought on to tackle the Covid-19 pandemic is working on an expired contract; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service related matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to reply directly to the Deputy, as soon as possible.
