Departmental Staff
Dail Éireann — 2023-02-16
============================================================

Róisín Shortall (SD), Dublin North-West

I have a serious concern about the high turnover of staff in the Department of Health in the past two years. In 2021, the number of staff leaving jumped considerably and it jumped again in 2022. I am concerned about the instability this will cause and is causing in the health service. What is the Minister doing about it and what exactly is going on in the Department of Health?
