- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Rural Schemes (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: I thank the Minister. I was aware from the previous reply in June that the research had been done. I welcome that, and I welcome the update that the three pilots will be completed in early 2024, at which point the Government will roll out a full policy on rural proofing all documents. Perhaps the Minister could tell me more about the new enterprise strategy. I think of seaweed and...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Rural Schemes (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: When does the Minister believe the enterprise policy will be ready? She referred to rural proofing as a tool. It is an essential tool that has not been used to date. When does she envisage that Departments will mainstream the rural proofing approach? It has not been mainstreamed, which is why Carraroe is without a day centre. If that decision had been rural proofed and poverty proofed,...
- Children's Health Ireland - Patient safety concerns and reviews in paediatric orthopaedic surgical services: Statements, Questions and Answers (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: I welcome the clarification given to Deputy Shortall about how families will have an input into the terms of reference. That is on the Dáil record. According to the report carried out by the Boston group, we needed to increase the use of formal adverse event reporting. Was it used effectively in time, given that there were two serious postoperative surgical incidents in July and...

Catherine Connolly: The Minister has said that. In the article by The Ditch, there is a reference to a report carried out last year by the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. Has the Minster read that report, is it available and is it published?
- Children's Health Ireland - Patient safety concerns and reviews in paediatric orthopaedic surgical services: Statements, Questions and Answers (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: The Minister is not aware of it at this point. I am only aware of it through reporting by The Ditch. It related to allegations of bullying.

Catherine Connolly: CHI speaks about an implementation plan and refers us to appendix 1, but when I go to appendix 1, there is no implementation plan. Has the Minister seen that implementation plan? It is a yes-no question.
- Children's Health Ireland - Patient safety concerns and reviews in paediatric orthopaedic surgical services: Statements, Questions and Answers (26 Sep 2023)

- Children's Health Ireland - Patient safety concerns and reviews in paediatric orthopaedic surgical services: Statements, Questions and Answers (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: Okay. Let me just say that I have gone to the trouble of reading them, my staff has gone to the trouble of downloading and reading them, and I see no implementation plan. That does not give me any confidence.
- Children's Health Ireland - Patient safety concerns and reviews in paediatric orthopaedic surgical services: Statements, Questions and Answers (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: We are told to find the implementation plan in appendix 1 and that it is an iterative document that will be updated regularly, but it is not there. This is just an example of what CHI is doing. I will finish, as my time is ending. I am concerned about CHI’s board. Is the Minister going to review its composition, seek to have minutes published and determine whether these issues were...
- Children's Health Ireland - Patient safety concerns and reviews in paediatric orthopaedic surgical services: Statements, Questions and Answers (26 Sep 2023)
Catherine Connolly: I have read all of the reports. I have read the three reports specifically and I have read two reports from the Ombudsman and a statement. I want to say at the outset that the authors of these reports should read the Ombudsman's report and learn how to write a report in clear, readable English, setting out the situation. That has not happened in a single report. It is absolutely...
