David Cullinane (Waterford, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
The majority of it, and yet the health service was not funded any of that. It got around €400 million of one-off funding as part of the €1 billion figure to which the Secretary General referred, which also includes Covid expenditure, Ukrainian funding, money for waiting lists and so on. I think a figure of €480 million was earmarked in the budget under the resilience fund but that is only one-off funding. In terms of core, permanent expenditure, in the context of the €1.5 billion that will be recurring next year, how much permanent funding did the health service get?
