Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: How much of it is spent so far? Is there not is a time limit on that?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: The figure I received in a parliamentary question response was quite lo#; it was only a fraction of the money that was allocated. While it may be the case that in terms of voted expenditure for both current and capital, the HSE hitting 99%, it does not seem to be the case under this resilience fund money that the same target is being reached. I could be wrong. I imagine if Mr. Thompson is...

David Cullinane: Why?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: We need to be assured that money will be spent. With all the investments that are needed, it would be intolerable if that money was not spent. My understanding is that there are rules around how and when that money can and should be spent. My last question relates to the next session we are going to have with Health Research Charities Ireland, HRCI. Its representatives talk about a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: I welcome Dr. Kennan and her colleagues. There is real frustration that we have been discussing these issues for the best part of ten years, and possibly longer. As was outlined, there have been numerous reports advocating changes in this area, such as in respect of the use of unique patient identifiers, electronic patient records and better integrating IT systems across healthcare for all...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: In the previous session, we heard directly from the HSE. The missing link in all of this is the Department of Health, which has questions to answer as well. It certainly has questions to answer in respect of the business case we discussed earlier. I have engaged with senior representatives in the Department on this issue of integrating IT systems and rolling out unique patient identifiers...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Electronic Health Records: Discussion (25 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: I suspect that the time horizon of a Minister for Health might be a little different from how many of these projects are delivered. We have to be brave when we look at this, however. Some of these measures require medium- to long-term investment and will take time to bed in before there is an outcome, but they are really important. I know Ms McCormack wishes to come in but my time is...

Human Tissue (Transplantation, Post-Mortem, Anatomical Examination and Public Display) Bill 2022: Second Stage (24 Jan 2023)

David Cullinane: I have ten minutes and I am sharing time with some of my colleagues. I welcome this Bill. I am sure the Minister will agree it has been a long time coming. Sinn Féin will be supporting this Bill and we will work with the Minister to ensure it is enacted as quickly as possible. I wish to first address Part 3 of the Bill relating to post mortems before returning to Part 2, which...
