Children and Family Relationships Bill 2018: Second Stage (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I wish to share time with Deputy Denise Mitchell. I welcome the families, some of whom are in the Gallery and more of whom will be watching the proceedings this evening. It is a great evening for them and there is much to be celebrated. The Children and Family Relationships Act 2015 was signed into law three years ago. That was definitely a monumental year for the LGBTQ community in...

Children and Family Relationships (Amendment) Bill 2018: Committee and Remaining Stages (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I share the concerns expressed. I have also been contacted by families impacted by this. I have had my own experience of getting recognition for my own small family unit. Deputy Donnelly has made a helpful suggestion. This is in no way meant personally towards any person sitting here but the intention is to keep pressure on for a group of people who feel they have been left behind. We do...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Hospital Services: Discussion (Resumed) (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I welcome the witnesses and thank them for their presentations and all the work they do representing their members. I wish to clarify one point. It is fair to say that GPs are represented here, although that is not necessarily the subject we are discussing. Their representatives are in the room. Perhaps representatives from the IMO might like to say something about GPs. The HSE appeared...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Hospital Services: Discussion (Resumed) (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: Could I refer to one of the questions I asked? On the number of beds, in the short term, with adequate staffing, are there beds currently in the system - without having to engage in the commissioning process? I am talking about reopening beds that were closed. Are there beds in the system that we could put our hands on now or in the short term?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Hospital Services: Discussion (Resumed) (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: As the people who drafted the bed capacity review were explicitly told not to look at a staffing plan, one would have to wonder what was going on there.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Hospital Services: Discussion (Resumed) (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: They are short-staffed. A point was made about pay, on which there has been a focus. Will Ms Ní Sheaghdha comment briefly on the issue of the work-pay ratio? I represented nurses, whom I never considered to be well paid. I do not think that could be shown on a graph, but perhaps it could. On comparators, we have heard about what people do in other countries. Ms Ní Sheaghdha...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Hospital Services: Discussion (Resumed) (11 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: It is amusing to hear people coming in here as if this crisis has just happened overnight. We know it is the result of successive Government policies. I have two brief questions. One is on the national treatment purchase fund, NTPF. Ms Clyne briefly touched on it but I would like to get the views of the other witnesses. I have heard it described as a sticking plaster and a short-term...

Questions on Promised Legislation (12 Jul 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I met these women with the Minister for Health and he is no doubt about the pain they are in on a daily basis. What happened in England has moved things forward, as the NHS is suspending use of this device for urinary incontinence. It is extremely important we now do the same. The women have said, as recently as Wednesday this week when I spoke with them, that it is too late for many of...
