Poll: Do you have confidence in Health Minister James Reilly?

James Reilly is under increasing pressure from Government ministers over his management of his Department – but what do you make of his performance?

JAMES REILLY HAS emerged as one of the ministerial losers in this year’s Budget.

Reports this morning suggest the Minister for Health is under increasing pressure from his Government colleagues and the public over his management of the Department and the ill-chosen €666 million Budget cuts due to be implemented.

The Department of Health has long been considered one of the most difficult in Government, and Reilly has repeatedly said that he wants to protect the health service during his time in office.

So today we’re asking: Do you have confidence in Minister for Health James Reilly?
