Sinn Fein Deputy Martin Kenny and Donegal Councillor Michael McMahon have joined ambulance personnel engaged in industrial action in Ballyshannon.

Deputy Kenny says the Ambulance personnel have never been recognised by the HSE Management and the Government for the work that they do and for the skill sets they possess.

The Sligo Leitrim TD says that on the picket line is the last place where ambulance staff want to be, however he added that it's the only way they feel they can effectively highlight their concerns.

Deputy Kenny says mixed messages from the government in relation to the level of finances available to it at present is also adding to the frustration of those engaged in the industrial action
