The Health Minister will be asked to provide details of her Department's freeze on recruitment.

The Department of Health and Social Care announced that it wouldn't be recruiting for any non-essential roles for the foreseeable future as it tries to reduce its spending.

Ayre and Michael MHK Tim Baker wants to know what roles will no longer be filled, what impact this will have on the headcount and costs, and how this will affect the services provided by the Department.

Kate Beecroft will respond when the House of Keys sits on Tuesday.
