Darren O'Rourke (SF), Meath East

I thank the Minister of State and I look forward to getting those figures. It is the exact same paragraph as I had from last year on the significant recruitment challenges. Will the Minister of State speak to the issue of recruitment and retention? She may be checking figures. While I do not want to put her on the spot, they are a long way off what I have here. If she has clarification on the figures, I would be happy to hear it. Regarding the recruitment and retention challenge in the sector, are we training enough staff? Are we getting to the bottom of the issues with recruiting and retaining staff?
