Dr. Diarmuid Quinlan:

Certainly some of my colleagues would say that taking on a full-time GMS contract with all the responsibilities that entails such as 24-7 cover is a substantial barrier for someone who due to their personal circumstances cannot provide that service.

It goes back to what the Deputy was saying about the GMS contract being 40 years old. Maybe it needs to be substantially reviewed in light of current workforce prices but also the changed demographics and the changed work-life balance people want. It is part of a bigger picture.
