Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: General Scheme of Insurance (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2021: Discussion (16 Dec 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I will be as succinct as possible. I want to take this opportunity to address the situation around mortgage life protection insurance for people with eating disorders, in particular cases where people are availing of counselling on a monthly basis, which is being used as a reason to refuse them insurance. Is Ms Murdock aware of the difficulty faced by people with eating disorders in getting...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach: General Scheme of Insurance (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2021: Discussion (16 Dec 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I am not dealing with just one case. We have to consider this in the context of the significant premiums charged. It is not a case of refusing someone on a particular basis.

I ask the witnesses to acknowledge...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Engagement with Londonderry Chamber of Commerce and Foyle Port (16 Dec 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I could not agree more. There is GMIT and the Mayo campus and the collaboration between Mayo University Hospital and Magee. We have successes and successful programmes which Mr. Clancy knows, some of which he was involved in, some of them across the island. How concerned is Mr. Clancy about student mobility across the island, whether North-South, South-North? There are so few students. I...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Engagement with Londonderry Chamber of Commerce and Foyle Port (16 Dec 2021)

Rose Conway-Walsh: The Enniskillen equestrian college is a good example of that. It has 50-50 North-South students. It has developed a niche course. I do think of green energy and the courses that can be done there, specifically to attract people in. I hope that the Cassells report will address the funding model we have for third level and the issues that are there that prevent some of the third level...
