As this question refers to service matters, I have asked the Health Service Executive (HSE) to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible. The Deputy will be aware that due to the ongoing industrial action by FORSA administrative and management grade staff in the HSE (which commenced on 6 October, 2023), delays remain in receiving answers to parliamentary questions and ministerial representations.

The HSE has been engaged with Forsa on the dispute through the auspices of the WRC and in that regard the WRC has invited the HSE and Forsa to a further hearing next Wednesday, 17 January, to seek to find a resolution to the dispute.
