Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Section 39 Organisations: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Brian O'Donnell:

I will try to do so quickly. Some are interlinked. To answer the first, which was, if I understand the Deputy's question correctly, whether the HSE gave us any indication that pay would be restored sometime, no. I do not think any of us was given any indication that, although there were demands on pay reduction, when the tide would turn there would be restoration. That was not the expectation.
