Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Services (2 Mar 2023)

Paul Donnelly: While there is obviously demand for services, that is not the reason this decision has been made. When there is demand, that demand needs to be met. One does not change a service to suit the fact that demand cannot be met. That issue has not been addressed. I appreciate CHI will continue the current approach for four weeks but parents will continue to bypass Connolly Hospital and go to...

Paul Donnelly: I will use this chance to raise the situation of the urgent care centre, that is, the walk-in service at Connolly Hospital and its transition to an appointment-only facility. I know that many parents in Dublin West and the wider community were delighted to hear we had got an urgent care centre in Blanchardstown and a place to which they could drop their child, if the child was ill.

National Ambulance Service: Motion [Private Members] (28 Feb 2023)

Paul Donnelly: The simple fact of the matter is that, as Minister has acknowledged, the ambulance service is under huge pressure. Nobody outside of the Chamber would ever criticise any of the workers. In fact, we have all been exceptionally supportive of them and that is why they have engaged with us on this matter. When a person fell ill recently in this building, I called the ambulance service at 11...

As a small member state with significant domestic supply and export...
