- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (22 Sep 2021)
Catherine Connolly: Tá mé ag filleadh ar an cheist a d’ardaigh an Teachta Shortall maidir le Sláintecare. Is polasaí é a foilsíodh i mí Bhealtaine 2017 nuair a bhí an Tánaiste ina Thaoiseach ag an am. Bhí sé lárnach sa phróiseas. Is polasaí é atá teipthe ina iomláine ag an Rialtas go háirithe de réir fianaise...
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (22 Sep 2021)
Catherine Connolly: There was no Covid in 2017. When the report was launched, it was because it was urgent and necessary. When did the Minister meet Tom Keane? Will the Minister please clarify that? When did that happen? Regarding the roll-out of this programme, I hope I never hear a Minister stand up here again and use the deaths of people from Covid as an explanation for why there was no progress on...

Four years later, on 12 February 2020, still before Covid, HIQA published its report. The report highlighted HIQA's concern at the overall level of progress in the implementation...

Catherine Connolly: Fáiltím roimh an deis, mar is gnáth, páirt a ghlacadh sa díospóireacht seo. Is Bille maith agus dearfach é seo ach tagann sé tar éis a lán tuarascálacha agus a lán rudaí nach raibh ceart. Tá an iomarca ama caite roimh na leasuithe atá á chur chun críche os comhair na Dála laistigh den Bhille seo....

Catherine Connolly: I thank the Minister for confirming that there is a review. That was announced in June. I welcome that. I am a little worried about the vagueness of the phrase “in the coming weeks”. Will the Minister be more specific on when the roadmap will be published and when we will have the final result with a view to amending the legislation, if necessary? I listened last week to...
- Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Freedom of Information (23 Sep 2021)
Catherine Connolly: I am not sure if I can do justice to this in a minute. I reiterate that of the figure that the Minister has mentioned for 2020, half were personal requests.
