I call Deputy Pringle on behalf of the Independents 4 Change.

The Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, is not here but perhaps the Minister of State can pass on my question. Ambulance drivers represented by the National Ambulance Service Representative Association, NASRA, will go on strike again tomorrow in protest against the HSE. The Minister has the power to resolve this dispute by asking the Labour Court to intervene to ensure these workers are given a hearing at which the HSE would also be represented. I ask the Minister of State to impress upon the Minister of Health that he should make that intervention and prevent this strike from going ahead and the dispute escalating. Taking that course of action is important for all of the people who depend on the ambulance service and for the workers in the ambulance service. It is important that those workers are represented by a union of their choice. That is the issue at stake.

I am happy to convey Deputy Pringle's sentiments to the Minister. This issue has been raised in the House almost every day this week and the answer remains the same. It concerns union recognition, as the Deputy is well aware.

Is the Minister going to do anything about it?
