What we need is a workforce plan that is aligned with recruitment, if we are training healthcare professionals. That is why we have training targets. We are training them to come to work in the public system. Every graduate should be offered a job in the public system. That is not runaway recruitment. It is common sense. If the Minister is able to furnish figures for vacancies that were abolished, he might do so. If he is disputing the INMO figures, he should at least put onto the public record what the HSE's estimated figures are. I will leave it at that.
