310. To ask the Minister for Health the reason the recruitment campaign for the consultant ophthalmologist position in south Tipperary is being advertised as a temporary position; the reason this post is not being advertised as a permanent position, making it more attractive; the number who have applied for the post in this new recruitment campaign; the number who applied for the post in the last recruitment campaign; whether it is correct that four people applied for the position; the reason a panel was not formed and the position offered to one of the other applicants; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

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