- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Business of Joint Committee
Hospital Services: Discussion (4 Jul 2018) Louise O'Reilly: I am sure Mr. Woods appreciates that this looks like gaming the numbers. That was his word, not mine. It completely looks like that. Overnight, with the stroke of a pen and without recruiting a single nurse, the HSE doubled the number.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Business of Joint Committee
Hospital Services: Discussion (4 Jul 2018) Louise O'Reilly: There is a reason they were 0.5 previously. It is because they are student nurses and not whole-time equivalents, WTE. They were not paid as a WTE or considered a WTE because they were learning on the job.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Business of Joint Committee
Hospital Services: Discussion (4 Jul 2018) Louise O'Reilly: Does the HSE use a benchmark? If a procedure costs €1,000 in the public service but €10,000 in the private sector, are the two figures compared? Many of the parliamentary questions to which Mr. Bolger referred were tabled by me and it is a bit like banging my head off a brick wall. We keep being told there are efficiencies in the private sector but I do not buy that.
