Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: School Staff (26 Jun 2025)

Naoise Ó Muirí: I thank the Minister of State for his response. I appreciate his acknowledgement that Belgrove has been through an appeals process. I understand it is an independent process. I welcome the statistics on the improvement of class sizes in primary schools. In this instance, however, Belgrove will go backwards for a period because of this aberration in teacher numbers. I think it is a unique...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: School Staff (26 Jun 2025)

Naoise Ó Muirí: This issue comes down to teacher allocation numbers. It is a matter of great concern to parents that Belgrove infant girls' school, which had an intake of 216 in the 2023-24 school year and qualified for nine teachers, is now down to eight teachers based on the 2024-25 intake. The projected number for September is 219, which is above the number at which it qualified for nine teachers...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: General Practitioner Services (26 Jun 2025)

That is a classic example of where GPs have helped to make a big difference and it is clear from the HSE's...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: General Practitioner Services (26 Jun 2025)

Naoise Ó Muirí: I thank the Minister for her response. There is an assertion out there that GPs are being trained and are then leaving the country. My colleague, Deputy Colm Burke, tells me that is not the case. The turnover of GPs is typically 5% to 6%, which is very low. The Minister has laid out the potential GPs entering the system through the various channels which is really positive. Perhaps the...

Naoise Ó Muirí: I am looking at this programme and it seems to be a quiet success story for the HSE. We hear very little about it.

The Minister mentioned some additional conditions that will be brought into it. I think she mentioned hypertension. It would be useful to have...
