Ms Kirkpatrick represents the therapists. I have asked the HSE and it has given me very convoluted answers, amounting to no more than the fact that life is terribly complicated. Sometimes, however, it is not terribly complicated in that we just need to hire people and be nice to them. I am asking Ms Kirkpatrick, as the representative of therapists, why it is proving so hard to hire therapists in these areas.
