Offences against the State (Amendment) Act 1998: Motion (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I thank the Acting Chairman. I must not have kept a proper eye on the roster. I thought I had a few minutes left. I was still drafting important lines I wanted to include in my remarks. This is important legislation. I take on board the point made by the previous speaker. It probably is a bit of a Groundhog Day when we have to revisit this every year. I hope that, this year, there will...

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: The pharmaceutical company Vertex is manufacturing what is seen as a game-changer drug for people with cystic fibrosis, namely, Kaftrio. Unfortunately, due to a price squabble between the HSE and Vertex at the moment, there are 35 children with the F508 mutation who are omitted from that. They come in the age category of six to 11 years. This is a life or death matter. One of the families...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I welcome all our witnesses. I have been educated over recent weeks. On Saturday I spoke to one of the injured women. She wishes to remain anonymous. She is here and her story is one of pain and horror and not being believed or trusted by our so-called best physicians. I want to mention two people in the Public Gallery: Melanie Power, a solicitor in Limerick, who has led the spotlighting...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: Is there a lack of skills in Ireland?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I believe it is necessary to do five surgeries a year to stay current and up-to-date. I presume that is not happening in Ireland. People are arriving, scalpel in hand, at a surgical table not fully skilled to perform surgery. Is that the nub of much of the problem here?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: If Ms McLaughlin forgives me, the Chair is going to cut me off in 30 seconds and I have to put an important question to Ms Martin. It really disturbed me to hear some eminent physicians say this is a problem of the mind. One patient has told me there was a suggestion they had augmented pain syndrome, that is, that the women were imagining it. I am a man so I cannot begin to imagine the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I thank Mr. Hendrick, Mr. Malone and the team for being here today. Moreover I thank them for their ongoing engagement. There is a lesson for Mr. Dalton Philips and the Dublin Airport Authority in this ongoing engagement with our committee. I am aware of pitfalls in Clare, and I am sure all committee members are aware of them in their areas. Such pitfalls are raised routinely with the...

Cathal Crowe: Is the company on schedule in general?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: That is positive to hear. At our previous meeting the witnesses indicated there are areas at the tail end of the national broadband roll-out for which there is no silver lining, or certainly not one that is not a long way off. The witnesses indicated the company would try to move them forward and fast-track them. Will the witnesses update us on this? There are such places in the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: At the previous meeting the witnesses mentioned the option of using satellites in particularly remote areas where it would take a number of years to get the wires and cables. Is the company still looking at this to any great extent? Will the witnesses comment on how it is going to fill the gap?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: For most people, it is either NBI or tethering to a hotspot on one's mobile phone. You either have it in your home or you do not. How much dialogue does NBI have with mobile phone service providers to ensure they are not going to the same place and leaving the same gaps? How much joined-up dialogue is there to ensure that, as separate entities, they are collectively covering all of Ireland?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: NBI is not operating in isolation; there is good communication between the various entities.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I met members of NBI on site in Cratloe, County Clare, 12 months ago. They did a tour of various places in Ireland but we stopped at a level crossing. This could have been any level crossing in Ireland. The NBI staff told me that, at that time, licensing agreements with Irish Rail and other national entities were proving to be a barrier. NBI might get cabling a certain distance down a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: National Broadband Plan Update: National Broadband Ireland (29 Jun 2022)
