Majority of consultants in favour of reforms

A majority in the Irish Hospital Consultants Association is in favour of the reform proposals currently being considered by the Labour Court.

The association had boycotted the Labour Court process and did not engage with the proposals tabled by the Labour Relations Commission on reforming work practices under the Croke Park Agreement.

However, a survey conducted by the Irish Hospital Consultants Association (IHCA) found that 57% of consultants were in favour of the reforms.
