Public Accounts Committee

2013 Annual Report of the Comptroller General and 2014 Appropriation Accounts
Vote 38: Health
Chapter 13: Irish Blood Transfusion Service Pension Funding

10:00 am

Mr. Andrew Kelly:

I would not describe it as a "right". I think I would say we are looking for a solution in the best interests of all concerned that will resolve all of these matters, including those associated with FEMPI, the pension fund and the funding of the IBTS, which is the most important issue to be resolved. As I have mentioned, we are at a very delicate stage in those negotiations. We are hopeful that this will be resolved in the next three months and that all of the issues around what we are discussing here this morning will be resolved with it.
