So 34 of the 35,000 people are in receipt of allowances. This matter needs to be resolved. While as I have stated previously people are entitled to be paid for the work they do, if that pay breaches Government pay guidelines the issue must be addressed. With due respect to the HSE, we should not be discussing this matter today. It should have been sorted a long time ago.
