Representatives of my Department, the HSE and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform have met with representatives of the INMO, SIPTU and the PNA to consider the recent Labour Court recommendations which issued in relation to the nursing dispute. As engagement is ongoing, it would not be possible to respond in detail at this juncture.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 163 and 164 together.
The recent Labour Court Recommendations issued on foot of industrial action taken by members of the INMO are still under consideration by the parties. As engagement is still ongoing, it would be unhelpful to comment further at this time.
