I have noticed on the NCBI website recently that there seems to be a high staff turnover in the context some positions, such as, for example, community resource workers. One of the issues that comes up all the time with section 39 workers - we see it in children disability network teams - is that there are HSE employees and section 39 workers doing exactly the same work and part of the same team but on different levels of pay, which can make it more difficult for those organisations to sustain staff levels. Is that a difficulty the NCBI has?
