We know how contracts of indefinite duration work. From the day a person starts on a fixed-term contract the clock starts ticking and the person begins to accrue an entitlement under the law, and I would not stand in the way of anyone who has that entitlement. I asked Ms Mannion about this and it struck me that the HSE does not have a handle on how many people are embarking on a journey towards a contract of indefinite duration. If we have only got as far as clinical directors conducting a review, it strikes me that it is not a priority and not urgent. I believe it should be an urgent matter and I have not heard what is going to be done to ensure it does not keep happening.
