Deadlock in student nurses parking row

A ROW between more than 200 student nurses and Health Service Executive (HSE) management arising from the withdrawal of free parking at Kerry General Hospital (KGH), in Tralee, is deadlocked.

The students have been told they can no longer use swipe cards that gave them free access to the staff car park and must pay €10 a day for parking.

The Irish Nurses Organisation (INO) has threatened industrial action if the decision is not reversed.
