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

Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

All I can give the Deputy is the explanation I have given as to why I did this. I wanted to keep it confidential. We had an informal communications channel. I hoped he would see it, read it and understand that what I was telling him was true, which was that everything of interest had already been published and that there was nothing in it which was contrary to what was in the public domain. I wanted the NAGP not to oppose the agreement. As it happens, it did not. Events moved on very quickly and that organisation fell into decline.
