Mr. Ginley made a number of points in his opening statement with which I agree. He said that vacancies in the private and not-for-profit sectors are due to high turnover and staff morale within the sector. Is it fair to say that there are problems in recruitment in both the public and private sectors and that the HSE is also struggling to recruit, and that this in turn, as well as the issues Mr. Ginley raised, is putting major pressures on both private providers and the sections 38 and 39 organisation providers in recruitment? Is it a problem across the sector?
