The operational detail of this question is a matter for the HSE and I have asked them to respond to you directly in relation to that detail.

As the Deputy may be aware, management and administrative grade staff in the Fórsa union in the HSE commenced industrial action on Friday 6th October. As a consequence of this industrial action, members in these grades are not engaging with political forums or processes. As a result, the question asked by the Deputy may be delayed in receiving a response directly from the HSE.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
