Select Committee on Health: Health Information Bill 2024: Committee Stage (16 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: Does it prescribe those kinds of instances? Mr. O’Connor says a bit of latitude, but sometimes a bit of latitude means you can drive a horse and carriage through it. In circumstances like the ones Mr. O’Connor just explained, there may be a rationale, but the concern is that a medical practitioner would not provide the information because in their view it was protecting their...

Select Committee on Health: Health Information Bill 2024: Committee Stage (16 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: Ms O’Connor might put herself in the shoes of a patient for a second. If a patient is looking for the information and, in the scenario Ms O'Connor has painted, the medical practitioner believes they need to have a conversation with that patient first, is that then communicated to the patient immediately to say the reason they cannot be given this is that the medical practitioner wants...

Select Committee on Health: Health Information Bill 2024: Committee Stage (16 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: We have loads of time. I have three quick questions. When we look at the scale of what needs to be done even to get to the shared care records, we have multiple service providers across acute, primary and community. I do not underestimate the challenge. We have multiple systems. Am I right in saying that initially at least we are looking at interoperability of multiple systems?...

Select Committee on Health: Health Information Bill 2024: Committee Stage (16 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: We would all accept the logic of that and of using what is personal health data for policy development, preparing regulations and the collection of data and statistics and so on. The question then is whether that data will be used in an anonymised or pseudoanonymised fashion only or whether a person's personal information can be made available in the context of doing what I referred to. In...

Endometriosis Care in Ireland: Motion [Private Members] (15 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: Never have I seen a debate where the Ministers' speeches were so far removed from the reality of women and their experiences. I watched as women in the Public Gallery got very angry when they listened to the Ministers' speeches. Many of them were in tears, and rightly so. For so long, these women have felt ignored and dismissed. I wager that they feel ignored and dismissed by the...

Endometriosis Care in Ireland: Motion [Private Members] (15 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: I do not know any woman who would choose to go abroad for invasive treatment by choice. The reason they go abroad is that the specialist treatment the Minister spoke about simply does not exist. What we are calling for in our motion is a centre of excellence supported by regional centres where women can get gold standard treatment. Women travel because the gold standard is not available....

Endometriosis Care in Ireland: Motion [Private Members] (15 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: Sinn Féin held nine public meetings on the issue of endometriosis over the past number of months. I attended some of those meetings. I was shocked when I heard a lot of the stories told by women. I listened carefully and watched as many of them cried in the presence of family members. The collective trauma in the room caught me by surprise. The message from these women of feeling...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Jul 2025)

David Cullinane: Over the last number of days, the South East Economic Monitor published its report, which showed a stagnant economy across the south east. There are very worrying figures in that report, which comes from a group of academics in the South East Technological University. One of the issues they cite is a lack of public investment in infrastructure. It is not that difficult to understand when...
