Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I think the industrial relations infrastructure of the State will be called upon again here. There is likely to be a Labour Court hearing on this matter next week. From the perspective of management, the Government and the nursing union, we want to get this issue resolved in a way that is consistent with the agreement that was the basis for the ending of industrial action by nurses. Everybody wants to work to that end. I suspect that the Workplace Relations Commission and the Labour Court will help us to get there.
