Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Private Activity in Public Hospitals: Discussion

All I am saying is that 12 consultants have left and have gone into private practice only. One of the challenges in the present system is that consultants who want to do a lot of work in addition to what is provided for in the contract are unable to do that under the HSE structure. I am not sure whether we can develop the system sufficiently quickly to recruit people while retaining the people we have.
