- Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)
Paul Murphy: The Minister for Health has the neck to come in here and claim that the pay and numbers strategy is not a recruitment moratorium when the health unions are telling us that is precisely what it is. To be clear, it does not matter to health workers or to patient safety whether or not it is officially called a recruitment moratorium. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a...
- Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: I thank Deputy Duncan Smith and his colleagues for this important motion.

- Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)
Róisín Shortall: I thank the Labour Party for tabling this motion on staffing levels in the HSE. The Social Democrats are happy to support it. There is no doubt that in recent weeks there have been several claims and counterclaims. This has made it difficult to get to the truth of the matter and the facts. The Minister's plan seems to be to muddy the waters instead of engaging in any kind of meaningful...

Members of the Fórsa trade union are due to join their colleagues in SIPTU and the INMO to protest on the Western Road in Clonmel on Thursday. I call on anyone who can attend to do so, and to show their support and solidarity between 12.30 p.m. and 1.30 p.m. While I suggest that Government representatives...
