Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I thank the Deputy for raising the matter and acknowledge the significant concern there was in Cork and Kerry this week. I am pleased my colleague, the Minister for Health, intervened to stop that proceeding and is now working to ensure funding is provided to augment front-line services because I acknowledge that, despite the additional budget we have put into the National Ambulance Service, there are service pressures in Cork and Kerry. I will have to ask the Minister to come back to the Deputy specifically on the workforce plan and how best to achieve it.
