Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I need to point out when discussing any issue that one would sometimes get the impression that there are fewer doctors working in the health service. There are in fact more. More consultants are working in the Irish health service this year than last year, and there was more last year than the year before that. There are many more now than when I became Minister for Health.
