Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update On Health Issues: Discussion (10 Nov 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: I wish to address a matter that was fairly conveniently not raised in Mr. O'Brien's opening statement, which is the memorandum that was sent. I note that the Minister for Health was outraged, as I was. I am well used to reading memoranda from the HSE. In fact, this morning is a little like a reunion of the national joint council. The memorandum that was sent was disgraceful. How is it...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update On Health Issues: Discussion (10 Nov 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: I did not see the memorandum but watched the RTE reports on the issue. It is my understanding that the memorandum contained a reference to the use of minimal force.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update On Health Issues: Discussion (10 Nov 2016)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update On Health Issues: Discussion (10 Nov 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: The Minister referenced the ballot for industrial action by the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation that is currently under way.

I understand also that the Irish Medical Organisation is balloting its members. It is safe to say that the health service...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update On Health Issues: Discussion (10 Nov 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: What does the Minister call the deal that was done with the Garda? A deal was done with the Garda which will cost more than €60 million. I do not know the exact cost, but it is extensive. Is that being done at the expense of services? That is the argument the Minister is making, that if he settles a dispute with the INMO he will have to cut the services somewhere else.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Quarterly Update On Health Issues: Discussion (10 Nov 2016)

Louise O'Reilly: Is that confirmation that the Department of Justice and Equality is going to cut back services to settle a pay dispute? I do not believe so.
