The Government has decided that the numbers employed across the public service must be reduced in order to meet its fiscal and budgetary targets. The health sector must make its contribution to that reduction.

A detailed breakdown of the staff grades in which hours have been cut is a matter for the Health Service Executive, and as such, the Deputy's enquiry has been referred to the HSE for direct reply.
