General Practitioner Contract: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-03
============================================================

Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I gave it on a confidential basis to Maitiú Ó Tuathail, as president of the NAGP. He shared it with some people in the NAGP but certainly did not publish it or decide to circulate it. It was a document that I had and gave to somebody in confidence. I explained why I did earlier, that I wanted to see if we could get the NAGP on side and make sure it did not oppose this agreement like it had in 2015. It was an attempt to get it on board.
I know the Deputy will keep going back to the point that Maitiú Ó Tuathail was my friend. That is true but I had lots of friends who are GPs. I still have lots-----
