Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 17 January 2024
1746. Deputy Pa Daly asked the Minister for Health if, given the reduction in services provided by SouthDoc, the contract for the service with the HSE has been altered, or if the amount being paid to SouthDoc has reduced in any way. [1652/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs 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 are 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.
