Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Discussion with CEO of Tusla on Future Developments and Update on Childcare Facilities (6 Nov 2019)

Lisa Chambers: I thank the witnesses for coming before the committee and apologise for my absence earlier. Committees are often scheduled at the same time, so I was at another committee this morning. I do not have a great deal to add on the "RTÉ Investigates" programme and the report. I appreciate that Mr. Gloster is limited in what he can say on that. We can say that it was a black mark and a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Discussion with CEO of Tusla on Future Developments and Update on Childcare Facilities (6 Nov 2019)

Lisa Chambers: I agree that Tusla needs to do some more work on highlighting the good work it does. I have had cause to interact with its social workers, the children and young people's services committee, CYPSC, co-ordinator and the agency. There is a lot of fantastic stuff happening on the ground. There is a breastfeeding policy on the cards in County Mayo, and there is greater work around mental...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Discussion with CEO of Tusla on Future Developments and Update on Childcare Facilities (6 Nov 2019)

Lisa Chambers: HSE engagement can be a challenge and I am not sure whether Tusla is aware of that. Given that the HSE is a mammoth organisation in its own right, it can be difficult to get representation and consistency. Another challenge is that, very often, CYPSCs are built on relationships, namely, between the co-ordinator, the sub-committees established and the people on them. If those people move...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Discussion with CEO of Tusla on Future Developments and Update on Childcare Facilities (6 Nov 2019)

Lisa Chambers: I have talked to Deputy Rabbitte about the notion of work experience, that is, linking with colleges to try to develop a work experience element. Would that be of value to explore? Much like if someone is training to be a nurse, he or she will do some work experience at a hospital. Could Tusla explore a better link with colleges to try to provide some practical experience during students'...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Implication of Brexit for Health Law in Ireland and EU: Discussion (6 Nov 2019)

Lisa Chambers: I thank the Chairman for allowing me to attend and ask questions. I thank both of the witnesses for their presentations. I will commence by asking Professor Maher a few questions on her statement. I entirely agree with both witnesses that the notion we would have a free trade agreement in 14 months is farcical. It is not impossible but highly unlikely. I share the concerns of witnesses...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Implication of Brexit for Health Law in Ireland and EU: Discussion (6 Nov 2019)

Lisa Chambers: A good point. I thank the professors for their replies. My next question was going to be on the joint committee and what the sub-committees and working groups should look like but my question has been answered. An interesting point that I will certainly take with me is the lack of detail on that. I agree it is probably not intended that just one person from each state will be working on...
