Gino Kenny: Okay, and 860,000 people are living with some form of neurological condition. On the issue of early onset Parkinson's, and I raised this at the presentation in the audiovisual room, we have a better understanding of this condition in recent years, but most people would still have that connotation that Parkinson's is an older person's condition, whereas that is not true. It is generally a...

- Dentistry Services: Motion (22 May 2024)
Gino Kenny: I commend the Social Democrats on introducing a motion on this important issue.

There is a great deal of stress about what is happening. I understand...
- Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Nursing Homes (23 May 2024)
Gino Kenny: This is a set of extraordinary circumstances. Googling this operator, it claims to be a multibillion dollar health provider in the United States. It is not some makeshift provider by any means. It has enormous assets behind it. Alarm bells are ringing about its very rudimentary fire compliance both in Sally Park and Lucan Lodge nursing homes.
