Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Sláintecare Implementation: Discussion
Mr. Paul Reid:
Briefly, to reassure the Deputy on the urgency on recruitment, including of consultants, as I stated on the previous occasion, up until last month we have increased the workforce in the health service by over 12.5%, which is the biggest increase since the formation of the health service.
Over the past two years, almost 15,000 people have been recruited in net terms.
