Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children
Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Minister for Health
11:50 am
Ms Laverne McGuinness:
Two pieces are left and the first one relates to the Chairman's question on agency and consultancy. We have the ability to recruit consultants but we just cannot get them. They are not available to fill the posts. That is not the same issue as having a moratorium on consultants. We are able to recruit them but cannot attract them.
