Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion (6 Feb 2019) Louise O'Reilly: With regard to the steering group, there were 12 meetings for which we have the minutes. The assistant secretary general, Ms Conroy, attended ten of them and Mr. Woods attended six. It is clear from what was being discussed that people were starting to get concerned. I presume Mr. Breslin would meet regularly with Ms Conroy, given they work in the same place.

Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion (6 Feb 2019) Louise O'Reilly: Even if it is just the occasional water cooler moment, Mr. Breslin will have seen this woman on an ongoing basis. Did she not say anything to him? It is obvious from the tone of the minutes that concerns were being raised. Would she not have said anything to Mr. Breslin in this regard? She was at ten of those meetings and Mr. Woods was at six. I have two questions. Was this not...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion
Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion (6 Feb 2019) Louise O'Reilly: My final question relates to the minutes of the meeting of 31 May 2018. Point 5 of page 3 stated that MOC noted concerns around the nursing intake to third level education, as the current flow will not generate the required 300 paediatric nurses in 2022. We have had discussions on this but my observation is that, even if this hospital is built, there will not be enough staff to staff it....

Quarterly Update on Health Issues: Discussion (6 Feb 2019) Louise O'Reilly: Last May, the HSE was not confident that it was going to get the numbers and it is not confident now. As someone looking on, it seems that sufficient attention was not being paid to the detail. There is no additional detail on how many new nurses will be in the system, how many will be recruited, and it is the same with allied health professionals. I understand the witnesses are here to...

- Nurses and Midwives Industrial Action: Statements (7 Feb 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: As the Minister knows, I am a former trade union official and am also the daughter of a trade union official. I have been a trade unionist all of my life and was very proud to stand on the picket line with nurses and midwives this morning at Beaumont Hospital. They gave me a number of messages, one of which is a badge for the Minister which reads "Save Staff". I do not imagine that the...
- Nurses and Midwives Industrial Action: Statements (7 Feb 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: I urge the Government to give up this attitude because it is not going to get anyone anywhere and it is not going to resolve the dispute. Does it accept that without pay on the negotiating table, this dispute cannot be resolved? Will the Ministers commit to making a telephone call because it is very easy to come in here and talk about patient safety? By the way, the Government's record on...

- Nurses and Midwives Industrial Action: Statements (7 Feb 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: The purpose of that statement is not lost on people. It was more pathetic spin from the Government. It had the opposite effect to the one intended by the Government. The Government should be under no illusions. These men and women have the support of the public and most people here. Will the Ministers apologise for issuing that press statement? Do they accept that it was more than...

Louise O'Reilly: Will the Minister tell the House if he believes it is credible that this information was known by senior people in the Department of Health and kept from the Minister? Do any of the Ministers on the Government benches today believe that this stacks up? Do any of them want to answer this? Will they stand up and say they believe this has credibility? This is beyond a joke at this stage....
