Alan Dillon: I asked for a breakdown with regard to sub-acute beds. Some 139 sub-acute beds were delivered.

More than 2,601 beds were delivered in total. Is that additional to what is currently in the public domain...

Alan Dillon: I refer to the Department's capital and estates division and the capacity for it to deliver on this. There is a real challenge in the hospital group in my own area with regard to the resources available to deliver projects across all hospital groups and regions. What is the Department doing to strengthen its division with regard to these types of projects? There are considerable budgets,...

Alan Dillon: Yes, but there is frustration with regard to the timeline from the approval of a capital project to when it delivers. I will bring up the emergency department at Mayo University Hospital again. We have a timeline of 60 months for delivery, which is just unacceptable.

This agency has responsibility for the protection, development and management of over 74,000 km of rivers and streams, together with 128,000 ha of lakes.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (9 Feb 2023)

Alan Dillon: Issues were raised with the Comptroller and Auditor General in March 2021 regarding statements of internal control. It was the opinion of the board that these issues were not satisfactorily resolved, so this is where the issues align. Some of these issues related to uninsured vehicles. For instance, there was a three-car crash in Donegal. I raised this matter previously-----

It impacts communities in north Mayo - Porturlin, Carrowteige, Srahataggle and Portacloy - where many rural dwellers are living without a piped water supply, which is severely impacting their quality of life. They have no drinking water and no heating system that can reach...

The debate refers to people who really require access to care. They are some of the most vulnerable people in our society.
