Finance Bill 2003 [ Certified Money Bill ] : Committee and Remaining Stages.
10:30 am
Jim Higgins (Fine Gael)
The Minister referred to employment during his recitation of the general achievements, etc., of the Government. If I recall the official statistics correctly, 23,000 additional people were recruited to the public service over a 12 month period and 50% of these individuals were recruited to the health service, which is already bloated.
