Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children
Remuneration of Section 38 Agency Staff: Health Service Executive
3:30 pm
Mr. Ian Tegerdine:
Regarding recommendation No. 6, the statement on allowances is being captured within the pay policy we mentioned. It is embodied in that policy which now represents the rules by which the agencies are held accountable.
On the Deputy's second question, in terms of what we in HR call talent management, I am not sure I have any definitive evidence of a difficulty in filling posts. However, I definitely have anecdotal evidence in so far as people are saying it is difficult to recruit the right talent to the health system because of some of the pay restrictions. As I said, this is merely anecdotal.
