No top ups for Holles Street chief

The Master of the National Maternity Hospital, Dr Rhona Mahony, says the extra money she received in addition to her salary came from private fees.

HSE and Department of Health figures show on top of her €183,562 salary, Dr Mahony receives a chief executive’s allowance of €53,000 and an additional €45,000 for patient fees.

On RTÉ radio yesterday Dr Mahony was asked if she received a ‘top up’.
