Last night I spoke in the Dáil on the Fianna Fáil Motion to call on the Government to engage with nursing organisations and also called for the establishment of an expert group which would examine the nursing and midwifery profession as well as remuneration, contracts and allowances
The passing of this motion sends a clear message to the Government that urgent action is needed to avert the planned strikes.
Nurses live extremely demanding lives and deserve our support and solidarity now more than ever. It’s a scandal that it has taken so long for the Government to meet or engage with the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation
