Mr. Robert Morton:

In January of this year we recruited only six student paramedics. In September we recruited 90. Then we have a plan to recruit around 90 more. It depends on people passing Garda clearance, but we expect to recruit about 90 in December of this year as well. We have also recruited 60 emergency medical technicians, who work in our intermediate care service and support our ambulances. That is the kind of profile of recruitment we are working to this year.
