Budget Management and Control of Health Expenditure in the context of Budget 2020: Discussion

Mr. Stephen Mulvany:

At the end of April, the operations area, which includes the disability community services and acute hospitals, covered approximately €12 billion of the overall €16 billion. We are approximately €80 million over. That is the area most inside our control. It is amenable to management control. In terms of the savings measures we are targeting in that respect, first, we are looking to live within the affordable level of staffing.
