Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Private Activity in Public Hospitals: Discussion

Dr. Donal de Buitléir:

One of the things I thought was quite interesting when I looked at the demographics of consultants is that it used to be virtually an all-male profession. It is now much more representative of society and more people require more flexible working arrangements and the heath system has to accommodate that like everybody else.
