INMO: Uptake for low-paid nursing jobs will be 'very low'

The Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation has said reports from the HSE that there has been "strong interest" in its controversial scheme to employ 1,000 graduate nurses on lower salaries is contrary to the feedback they have been getting.

Earlier, an HSE spokeswoman said: "Informal interest and enquiries regarding the scheme has been strong since it was announced in December."
