Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Áras Attracta: HSE

8:55 pm

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

First, I will deal with the issue of the specific questions about the individual staff members who are off-duty. With respect to Deputy Fitzpatrick, I cannot tell him or disclose information about previous disciplinary records or previous Garda issues. Were that information available, it would be improper to so do because it would be prejudicial to the current investigations and I hope the Deputy will bear with me on that one. As for the split of staff, there are 13 people who were on duty and who no longer are on duty. Eleven of them were directly employed, six of whom were nursing staff and five of whom were non-nursing health care staff. Two were agency personnel, one nursing and one non-nursing. The engagement of the two agency personnel has simply been ceased.
