Budget 2024 Expenditure Ceiling and Resource Allocation for the Department of Health and HSE: Discussion
Mr. David Moloney:
When one looks back over the last 15 to 20 years, one sees regular supplementary budgets for health. It is not a completely predictable area. Events happen and the impacts of the pandemic obviously really exacerbated that. If one looks back over the years at the quantum of the health supplementary spending, sometimes reflecting in-year decisions, it has varied enormously over time.
