Louise O'Reilly: The Tánaiste's response will do absolutely nothing to encourage psychiatric nurses to undertake overtime. It is not the first time they have done this and it should not come as a surprise. I was on my tools the last time they did it in 2007.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on the CervicalCheck Screening Programme: Discussion (18 Sep 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I want it to be clear that a woman who has a test done privately can be referred to the public system. There seems to be mixing and changing in that regard.
