- An additional €20 million in 2025 in new recurrent funding for the National Cancer Strategy.
- An assessment of the funding needs of cancer services, above this €20 million minimum additional annual funding level, to ensure full implementation of the National Cancer Strategy by 2026.
- End the recruitment embargo by allocating the necessary funding to fill crucial healthcare sector posts based on up-to-date workforce plans.
