Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The figures in this budget have been signed off collectively by the Government. As regards the Vote for the Department of Health, the Health Service Executive must prepare a service plan based on those figures and come back to the Minister for Health in the next three to four weeks. I expect everybody involved in the Department and the HSE to work assiduously on the production of that service plan. The figures therein are challenging but they are achievable.
