General Practitioner Services
Dail Éireann — 2022-02-15
============================================================

Róisín Shortall (SD), Dublin North-West

To stick with the issue of the shortage of GPs, we know there are major recruitment and retention problems right across the health service. The Minister described the problems well but we need to talk about what exactly will be done about them. General practice is central to our health service, to its future, to Sláintecare and to the aim of having the right care in the right place at the right time. Will the Minister tell us exactly what steps he will take to deal with the shortage of GPs?
