IMO: Junior doctors' strike can be avoided

The Irish Medical Organisation says a strike by junior doctors can be avoided if the HSE is willing to negotiate over working hours.

Yesterday, the IMO served industrial action on the HSE which will see a one day national strike of Non-Consultant Hospital Doctors (NCHDs) at hospitals around the country on Wednesday, September 25 along with further industrial action - in at least one hospital - in each region, every week - from Monday September 30.
