============================================================

Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I thank the Deputy. We are and we will. As I mentioned earlier, more than 1,000 additional beds have been added to our acute hospital system since this Government came into office. We have added about 6,000 more doctors, nurses and midwives than was the case three years ago, so we are doing those things. There is an engagement between the Government and the nurses' union on particular issues involving safety in the workplace as well.
