I note that the group outside Leinster House today comprises very professional and committed ambulance paramedics who are highlighting their right to join the union of their choice, not the boss' choice. This issue was raised last June when they were previously outside the gates. The Minister then said he was talking to management in the HSE. An all-party group of Deputies asked for a meeting with the Minister to try to resolve the issue. What is happening? Will the Minister update us on his talks with management? Will he meet the cross-parliamentary group?
