- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Supplementary Report of Scoping Inquiry into CervicalCheck Programme: Discussion (4 Jul 2019)
Kate O'Connell: It was mentioned that the contracting and tendering side was changing. That is retrospective governance again. Was Dr. Scally shocked by what he found? I think he was. Dr. Denton was definitely shocked. These labs were not even known about. Has Dr. Scally ever seen the like?

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Supplementary Report of Scoping Inquiry into CervicalCheck Programme: Discussion (4 Jul 2019)
Kate O'Connell: I do not expect Dr. Scally to answer this question. If what was going on in CervicalCheck has been replicated across the wider HSE, we would have a massive problem, would we not?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Jul 2019)
Kate O'Connell: I thank our guests for all they do and for attending this meeting.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Jul 2019)
Kate O'Connell: It was mentioned that the groups had arisen from the community in order to meet its needs. Would any dissociation from their connection with people be an erosion of their work? There seems to be a dissociation between the HSE and their work, with the Disability Federation of Ireland being an essential link in that regard.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Jul 2019)
Kate O'Connell: On policy, how is the relationship between the delegates' organisations and the Department in coming up with policy initiatives for people engaging with the services they offer when one takes the money and contracts out of the equation?

Kate O'Connell: On outcomes and their engagement with the workforce, it would be very useful for those who might be diagnosed in their teens and then go to university not to meet that barrier. It is very difficult to explain to an 18 year old lad with epilepsy that he may not drive. Perhaps as a result of this meeting the committee will write to the Minister to remind him of the correspondence in that regard.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (Resumed) (10 Jul 2019)
Kate O'Connell: If the issue affects 5,000 people, there is a public good. In recognition of what Mr. Murphy and his organisation have worked towards, it would be helpful if the committee were to do so.
