That was definitely a monumental year for the LGBTQ community in...

Louise O'Reilly: They are short-staffed. A point was made about pay, on which there has been a focus. Will Ms Ní Sheaghdha comment briefly on the issue of the work-pay ratio?

Louise O'Reilly: It is amusing to hear people coming in here as if this crisis has just happened overnight. We know it is the result of successive Government policies. I have two brief questions. One is on the national treatment purchase fund, NTPF. Ms Clyne briefly touched on it but I would like to get the views of the other witnesses. I have heard it described as a sticking plaster and a short-term...
