It has everything to do with how we provide staff, not only front line staff but administrative. They all are paid from this budget. I am highlighting the fact that there is now what I regard as an abuse of JobBridge by the HSE to get cheap labour in these critical positions. That includes, as advertised, gaining experience and skills working in emergency departments, inpatient, outpatient and day-care settings, and various other departments including wards, radiology, laboratory, physiotherapy and administration. It is most important that we get an answer to that.
