- Order of Business (3 Feb 2015)
Robert Troy: I congratulate the INMO on securing additional front-line staff for a number of hospitals this week. Last week I raised the issue of the Midland Regional Hospital in Mullingar and the Taoiseach seemed to belittle my enthusiasm about advocating the rights of the staff at that hospital, where there are 100 fewer whole-time equivalent nurses and midwives in the past five years. I want to ask...

Robert Troy: On legislation in the area of children, the Taoiseach said before that this was the most reforming Government in the area of child welfare. I want to ask about two pieces of legislation, first the National Vetting Bureau (Children and Vulnerable Persons) Act 2012. That was enacted by both Houses of the Oireachtas over 12 or 18 months ago. When will the commencement order be signed?...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Seventh Report on Child Protection 2014: Discussion (29 Jan 2015)
Robert Troy: I welcome Dr. Geoffrey Shannon. He has always been very generous with his time in appearing for the committee. Each year he has appeared before the committee there have been recurring recommendations. As the author of this report, does he believe it would be appropriate to introduce an implementation plan, or a timeframe, to ensure he is not just labouring in vain and that the Government...
