John Lahart: 419. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government the status of the work of the Electoral Commission, particularly concerning arrangements for those who cannot vote due to a sudden light illness, holiday examinations and so on, or absence due to work from the country (details supplied); the objectives he set the Electoral Commission in this regard; and if he will make a...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)
John Lahart: I thank Mr. Gloster and his team for the updates. I have four areas to discuss. I will dispense with the quick ones first because they might just need a report. I want to keep chasing Mr. Gloster, the HSE and the Land Development Agency, LDA, on the accommodation piece. Perhaps we could have an update in writing on that. The HSE needs to get aggressive about this. Accommodation costs...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)
John Lahart: I acknowledge those improvements. To follow up on Deputy Cathal Crowe's point, is there any way that we can buy these services from other community health areas or is that being done? Who carries out the assessment? There is an historical or legacy issue, whereby parents were getting assessments done privately and these were not accepted by the HSE. Is there any way that can be surmounted?...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)
John Lahart: I welcome that lateral approach and that fresh thinking around it. Dr. Burke might keep us updated on it. Even an additional note might be appropriate on that, Chair. Can Dr. Burke give us any information regarding data around this in the context of geographical areas? Are there particular locations that have red flags? For assessment of need, not just in Dr. Burke's experience but...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)
John Lahart: If Dr. Burke was looking at a map of Ireland, would she be able to identify the areas that are hot spots in terms of children presenting with additional needs, while other areas are not as hot? Are the resources being targeted to the hot spots as opposed to every CHO getting a spread of things?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)
John Lahart: I am asking whether the children presenting are coming from particular geographical locations. Is there a concentration of them in some areas? If so, is there a commensurate allocation of resources to those areas?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on Neurorehabilitation Healthcare, Primary Care Centre Programme and CAMHS: HSE (3 Jul 2024)
John Lahart: On the primary care piece, again, the HSE is looking at different things. On page 5 of the report, it states that a review was undertaken following a number of landlords and developers raising concerns about the financial viability of the operating lease model. I am thinking of Ballyboden Primary Care Centre, which is an excellent and fantastic centre. I have availed if it myself. It is...
