I agree. We are dealing with an area where there is a skills shortage. We would have train new testers to take on these roles where we have existing testers. Therefore, a common sense approach must be adopted. Waiting periods may be reducing but we still have huge waiting lists so that is a common-sense approach

I ask the Leas-Chathaoirleach, on behalf of the committee, to write to the Minister about this and to RSA management to ask for further clarity on the answer they gave today and to keep the pressure up.
