Place: no local area assigned from the source.

In a dispute over night rosters, the Labour Court recommended that St James Hospital give Rose McLoughlin weekly work in its Care of the Elderly Unit, without night shifts. McLoughlin accepted the arrangement. The Court signed its determination on 3 January 2001, after McLoughlin appealed a Rights Commissioner recommendation under the Organisation of Working Time Act, 1997. The Rights Commissioner had said the hospital was not in breach of the Act and recommended that it accept her offer to undergo tests at Blackrock Clinic.
