I will be brief. We learned this week of concerns in regard to consultants' contracts between the HSE and St. Vincent's Hospital. We know that some but not all consultants on salaries of approximately €100,000, with contracts that limit them to working within the public hospital system, are on leaving the public hospital at St. Vincent's entering the private hospital next door to do what are termed "nixers", which is double-jobbing. I object to this, as I believe would all tax compliant taxpayers because it is they who are paying the salaries of these consultants.

I presume Mr. O'Brien is tax complaint.
