Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Workforce Planning in the Health Sector: Discussion
Dr. Rita Doyle:
Ms O'Farrell would have the exact figures but I would say that contrary to what people think, it is not all money. There is the resource issue. The fact that entrants to the consultants' register are being paid one third less than their colleagues is an issue but it is not the main issue. It is the culture in which medicine is practised in this country that is the main issue.
