- Written Answers — Department of Health: Nursing Home Beds Data (16 Jan 2018)

- Section 39 Agency Staff Reimbursements: Motion [Private Members] (17 Jan 2018)
Jim Daly: Calls for all staff in the organisations to be made public servants simply cannot be agreed to by the State. Adding potentially 100,000 people to the numbers in the public service cannot be afforded by the Exchequer. Budgets were cut across the public service during the financial crisis and everyone was expected to make savings. Given that the large part of the budgets of section 39...
- Section 39 Agency Staff Reimbursements: Motion [Private Members] (17 Jan 2018)
Jim Daly: While it is understood pay cuts were imposed on section 39 employees, often we are relying on anecdotal evidence as to how they were applied. Different measures such as increment freezes, pauses in recruitment and reducing staff numbers may also have been used. I was happy to hear the Minister of State, Deputy Finian McGrath, advise the House that the Minister for Health, Deputy Simon...
