Ms Yvonne O'Neill:

I am not familiar with the specifics of the Cork-Kerry numbers, but overall the recruitment campaigns are active at a local and national level. We are trying at all times to maximise the recruitment, but the Deputy has rightly identified we are losing numbers overall. There are some very specific endeavours happening around the home support recruitment campaigns to try to make the terms and conditions as attractive as possible, being as proactive as possible and keeping the campaigns local, which have shown to be better for attracting people.
