SF undeterred in bid to force HSE boss to quit

A motion of no confidence in HSE director general Tony O’Brien will be brought next week after a Sinn Féin attempt was blocked yesterday.

Pressure continues to mount on Mr O’Brien, not alone from the Opposition but from some ministers and TDs calling for his resignation.

While Sinn Féin was stopped from putting forward a motion of no confidence over his handling of the CervicalCheck controversy, it is to mount a similar motion next week.
