HSE recruitment embargo for nurses

Summary

After Leaders' Questions formally ends, Deputy Doherty insists the Taoiseach should correct the record because the HSE recruitment embargo does apply to nurses. The Chair repeatedly asks him to resume his seat while other Members interject that it is not his question.

Thank you. That concludes Leader's Questions.

With respect, the Taoiseach should correct the record of the Dáil. This recruitment ban, if he is not aware of it, does apply to nurses-----

The only nurses it does not apply to are newly graduated nurses.

For the second time, please resume your seat, Deputy.

The Taoiseach should correct the record of the Dáil or he should inform himself of how his recruitment embargo applies.
