Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Protection and Support for Covid-19 Front-line Workers: Discussion

Mr. Anthony Owens:

No, there has not been. Any engagement consultants have had has been engagement via press release. We have not had meaningful negotiations with the employer or management side.

In the case of non-consultant hospital doctors, we have almost looked into a situation whereby we have more NCHDs and posts than we had planned to have.

Unless we take steps to keep them, we will lose them once international borders reopen. On public health doctors, there has been no progress whatsoever.
