Outgoing HSE chief admits tension with Reilly

The outgoing head of the HSE has admitted there are tensions between himself and James Reilly, the health minister.

The admission came after HSE chief executive Cathal Magee told Mr Reilly last week that he would be resigning from his position.

Opposition parties have argued that Mr Magee was pushed from his post but the claim has been strongly rejected by Taoiseach Enda Kenny, among others.
