Irish Medical Organisation shocked at 'inexplicable' overtime ban for interns at Dublin hospital

The Irish Medical Organisation says it is shocked at reports that a leading Dublin hospital will not pay interns for overtime despite the current hospital crisis.

It is understood that senior management at Connolly Hospital in Blanchardstown have sent a memo to consultants and interns, telling them that Interns will not be paid for work done before 8am or after 5pm.
