Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Implications for Health Sector of United Kingdom's Withdrawal from the EU: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Jim Breslin:

So long as we can maintain that our doctors are getting in that 48-hour period the quality of training that would be expected for someone working for a longer period of time in the UK, it is better that our doctors are working 48 hours instead of 60 hours in terms of the performance of their duties.
