Health Service Executive: Financial Statements 2020 (26 May 2022)

Cormac Devlin: I am chair of the all-party Oireachtas committee on diabetes. I am aware of a framework being discussed by the HSE and providers of certain continuous glucose monitors, CGM. It is taking a long time. There was a previous attempt in 2017 and 2018 to get approval for a particular monitor. That has an impact on those with diabetes. I do not expect Ms O'Connor to have the information right...

Cormac Devlin: I have one minute remaining for three questions. In regard to the waiting lists and the national treatment purchase fund, NTPF, in April a total of 7,221 patients were on some form of public waiting list to be treated or assessed by a consultant. How is the NTPF assisting in those figures or is it not assisting with those numbers? Also, the last time the HSE was in, we spoke about the...

Cormac Devlin: I welcome Mr. McCarthy and thank him for the briefing information provided in advance of the meeting. I will stick with Oberstown to start with because Deputy Burke was speaking about it a moment ago. It was mentioned that there is capacity for 46 inmates and is it fair to say they are the higher end of the more challenging youths, as detention centres go in the State? Would it be...

Cormac Devlin: Mr. McCarthy mentioned funding relating to Oberstown, which increased over the past while. I think €24 million was expended under the programme in 2020. He also referred to education, training and other supports for those who are on licence there. What kind of uptake is there in that centre for the services that are there?

Cormac Devlin: I thank Mr. McCarthy. Our time is limited. On ECCE and programme B specifically, in the Department's appropriation accounts, under the heading "Agency services", it is stated that Pobal administers that particular programme. There was an advance of €518 million to Pobal in relation to note 6.1. What was that advance for?
