2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 38 - Department of Health (5 Jul 2018) Marc MacSharry: Mr. Connaghan's choice of words was based on his UK experience. It is a disciplinary process. Theoretically, depending on the findings, it could lead to tangible sanction, whether suspension, dismissal or whatever.

Vote 38 - Department of Health (5 Jul 2018) Marc MacSharry: I thank Mr. Connaghan for clarifying that. Earlier, the HSE representatives mentioned that exit interviews are held with some exiting staff. Is that only at consultant level or does it apply at nursing level and to junior doctors and so on?

Vote 38 - Department of Health (5 Jul 2018) Marc MacSharry: We are just talking about the specific Wexford case. On the basis of these exit interviews it would be useful for the committee and the State generally if the HSE could correlate some of this information. The executive could tell us X% are leaving because of money and Y% are leaving because of facilities and so on. In that way, the committee could prevail upon the Department of Public...

Vote 38 - Department of Health (5 Jul 2018) Marc MacSharry: As Deputy Connolly said earlier, it is a crisis. If we have four jobs for every one applicant, then that is a problem. Certainly, there are examples in the north west. I imagine there are examples in every community healthcare organisation.

Vote 38 - Department of Health (5 Jul 2018) Marc MacSharry: Yes. Will the HSE ask the Department of Health, perhaps through the Minister, to define "consultant" in the Medical Practitioners Act. Clearly, this is a problem because it is not provided for. My final question is regional. It is a point similar to the representatives from the south east. A cardiac catheterisation laboratory was going to be based in the north west. It was announced...
