Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

HIQA Investigation into Midland Regional Hospital, Portlaoise (Resumed): Parents and Patient Advocates

Mr. Mark Molloy:

On Senator John Gilroy's comment about the presentation, it is a fraction. It was worked on from 4 p.m. on Friday when I got home from work until last night in an effort to condense it. Without time constraints, we could be here until tomorrow. We have a huge volume of information. It does not go into the inquest into Mark's death or him being classified incorrectly as stillborn. There are many other elements, but we had to try to condense the presentation today. We wanted to focus on what we had been hearing on the news for the past two weeks, namely, that "this was not escalated to national level" and that "this was not on my watch". This proves that both assertions are incorrect.
