- Joint Committee On Health: Issues Relating to Perinatal Mental Health: Discussion (18 Oct 2022)
Neasa Hourigan: I do not want to cut across Dr. Wrigely; I am just trying to get a sense of it. Does she mean people are given a checklist to tell them to make sure they ask about women's mental health, or are they being given training to approach women in a certain way? It would seem, if people are hiding it, particularly in certain cohorts, that they are not so much defensive but very wary of...

Neasa Hourigan: That only started last year.

Neasa Hourigan: When Dr. Wrigley says it started, does "it" refer to a set of training or a requirement on the nurses and if so how many are doing it?

Neasa Hourigan: Does rolling that out require an hour of training or is it simply a document?

Neasa Hourigan: I will come to Professor McCarthy but I would be interested in how we are doing that. We are contextualising this as medical issue for a small baby, but for the parents it is also a human rights issue and certainly my experience of how a disability was contextualised was negative. A number of services, for example, An Garda Síochána, are being encouraged to undertake training on...

Neasa Hourigan: I know everyone wants to contribute so I will finish with one question and perhaps come back in when everyone else has finished. Would it be fair to say when it comes to perinatal mental health, those feelings of agency and control are incredibly important for people who are pregnant and, in that context, do the witnesses take a view on the suspension of particular services, such as home...

Neasa Hourigan: Does Dr. Wrigley similarly take a view on the suspension of home births in Munster?

Neasa Hourigan: I apologise for cutting in, but it is useful for us to get the detail. I have been reading some of the research on this and it seems to be very common that people would not necessarily hide their illness but they may underplay it during a pregnancy because they are worried they might be identified as problematic. I am trying to get a sense of when such people are identified. Is it at the...
- Joint Committee On Health: Issues Relating to Perinatal Mental Health: Discussion (18 Oct 2022)
Neasa Hourigan: I totally understand that but I am wondering as there was a bit of an outcry at the time from women who felt that they were absolutely suitable for that kind of service and that choice was being taken away from them. I totally get what was said about that being obstetric and this being psychiatric but we cannot easily decouple those two things when it comes to people's agency about their own...

Neasa Hourigan: Yes. As the public representative for the local area, I am delighted to hear the discussion around the Rotunda and the requirement for more space. I am aware there is a business case doing the rounds which I have been supporting in terms of getting more space and access to another building. Having had my kids in the Rotunda, I can see how much more we could be doing. I have one...

Neasa Hourigan: Dr. Wrigley is the only person who has ever said that to me. I know it is an incredibly boring question.
- Joint Committee On Health: Issues Relating to Perinatal Mental Health: Discussion (18 Oct 2022)
Neasa Hourigan: Dr. Wrigley has my support on that. The data underwrites the budget allocation and links to finance, which is kind of why I was asking about it.

Neasa Hourigan: Was a timeline given for that?
