I would refer the Deputy to my reply to Question 31481/16 regarding the legislative position concerning VAT exemptions and the services of locum doctors.
In the specific case mentioned by the Deputy, I am advised by Revenue that the service concerned is the supply of medical professionals to third parties and is therefore within the charge to VAT and taxable at the standard rate. I am advised by Revenue that the company is currently in active discussions with them on the matter.
