Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 11 July 2024
366. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Health to provide an update on the €50,000 that was allocated specifically to support the recruitment of a DRIVE lead to coordinate the work in Drogheda and surrounding area, in response to the Geiran report; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraAs this refers to a service matter, I have sent this PQ to the HSE for direct response. 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.
