The Minister for Health, Stephen Donnelly TD, has welcomed publication of the HSE’s Winter Plan for 2020/21.

The Minister said: “This Winter is expected to be particularly challenging due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The Government’s determination to meet this challenge is demonstrated by our decision to invest an additional €600 million in health services this winter. Our healthcare workers have worked tirelessly throughout this pandemic, and this investment will support them as they care for their patients, both those that have COVID-19 and those that have other health needs.”
