Ms Fiona O'Byrne:

The Department of Health is undertaking work. It has funding from the European Commission to support it in its workforce planning to develop the tools and approaches to develop workforce plans for each of the subdisciplines that fall under the HSCP banner, as well as within medicine and nursing. That work is continuing. In parallel with that and in advance of final workforce plans beings arrived at, we are trying to ensure there are no constraints that would stop it.
