That's double the figure for 2019.

71 HSE staff were paid over €350,000 each last year - over twice as many as in 2019.

23 got over 400,000 each, including basic pay, overtime and other allowances.

The highest earner received over €640,000, as the HSE's spend on pay increased last year due to the pandemic.

Stephen McMahon, from the Irish Patients Association, is calling for the spending to be reviewed.

Stephen McMahon says the new figures are concerning.
