Vote Management and Budgetary Situation in 2012: Discussion with Department of Health and HSE
6:50 pm
Mr. Tony O'Brien:
As I have said to the Deputy, the decision to add 15 was not made by the HSE; it was, as outlined by the Secretary General, a policy decision based on the judgment on the need to go to a higher number in order to achieve deliverability.
