Paul Reid says health body will ‘deliver on all commitments in service plan’

The Health Service Executive is continuing to deliver on commitments contained in the organisation’s service plan, the new director general Paul Reid has said.

Newly-released documents showed the extra controls were planned as a response to the HSE’s financial deficit rising to nearly €170 million at the end of May, up from €116 million at the end of April. “We are continuing across all of our services in the HSE to deliver all of our commitments in our service plan in line with the budget that we have been allocated from Government,” he said.

Official minutes of a cross-governmental oversight group on health spending showed senior officials spelling out the need for additional measures to rein in expenditure, citing also “serious concerns” over staffing increases in the health service.
