Stephen Donnelly: I thank the Deputy. As he said, the focus right now is on getting these consultants in place. I fully accept that. Letterkenny has approved two full-time posts, with 100% commitment at the hospital and, as the Deputy said, there is also a third post. The focus is on these endocrinology posts. There was very effective intervention by central HSE for recruiting more consultants for...

Catherine Connolly: There was a slight problem with notifications. We will now take Question No. 9. We will probably only have time for one more question and perhaps part of another one. The notification of Deputy Stanton's substitution was sent in yesterday so we can proceed.

Ruairi Ó Murchú: We all welcome the moves relating to preventative care. As part of a perfect solution, we would eventually have a sufficient level of public dentistry to provide what is required. I am glad that some people are getting necessary dental care through the private sector. The numbers have obviously jumped. In 2021, in the Louth-Meath area, 77 patients were accepted at a cost of...

Colm Burke: Most of the funding for section 39 and section 56 organisations comes through the HSE. The funding for some of the programmes that employ people did not necessarily come through the HSE and therefore they fell outside the agreement that was reached under the WRC. It is my understanding there are further discussions on that issue and every effort is being made to resolve it. It affects a...

Cathal Crowe: I thank the Minister of State. That meeting sounds very positive. Long ago I used to believe the budget was set each autumn but I know work on the new budget has already begun. It is positive the Minister of State has had those negotiations and talks. Even though we are talking about our country's older population, a comparison could be drawn with childcare at the other end of the age...

Stephen Donnelly: I thank Deputies Collins and Kenny. This is a serious issue and I fully accept the Deputies' representations. I absolutely take Deputy Collins's point. We cannot have children not getting these developmental checks, we cannot have parents who are worried and we certainly cannot have the kinds of delays the Deputy has referenced. I will commit to taking this up at a senior level within the...

David Cullinane: The problem is that for many parents and many children that is not happening. A number of weeks ago I raised the case of Aiveen , a young child with early-onset scoliosis. Her family crowdfunded for her to go to America to get specialist treatment. She got that and is now doing very well. She certainly did not get the support from the HSE. Her family had to depend on the public coming in...

David Cullinane: The tragedy of all of this is that most of those beds have come far too late. There is no reason those beds should not have been funded years ago. Everybody knows that when the decision was made to close Ennis and Nenagh emergency departments, additional capacity was needed in Limerick. It was promised that it would be a centre of excellence. It has not been able to perform as that centre...
