Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

It is our wish that we will have this issue solved in advance of that timeline but that is still a matter for the discussions and negotiations. Following agreement we would intend bringing in a new contract hopefully to ramp up the recruitment of more consultants.
On the RHAs, good consultations and engagement with health sector stakeholders have been held and more are scheduled. These include a workshop of the voluntary dialogue forum and six regional events were held for health service workers in Cork, Sligo, Kilkenny Tullamore, Dublin and Limerick in September and October. We are making progress on those fronts.
