Public Accounts Committee

2018 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Chapter 15 - Development of Primary Care Centres

9:00 am

Mr. Paul Reid:

Primarily, where we have a difference between direct provision hours by HSE employees and contracted hours by profit or not-for-profit companies is largely a function of the history of where the supply has been. There have been extra cost pressures on us this year such as wage inflation and Workplace Relations Commission agreements so the cost per hour has gone up.
