Ensuring the safety of our employees is a priority concern. It is completely unacceptable that the staff of our health service have to endure harassment or bullying in the course of delivering their duties. I note the HSE are focussing on improvements in this regard, and I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy in relation to steps they are taking to tackle this matter.
