The Labour Court recommended against a location allowance for Theatre/Central Sterile Supply Service nurses at Waterford Regional Hospital, finding they were not covered by the agreement. The recommendation was dated 15 April 2003. The Irish Nurses' Organisation argued that the department’s location and work supplying theatre suites qualified staff for the allowance. The South Eastern Health Board said the staff did not perform theatre nursing duties.
