Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: I have limited time. I will ask about the recruitment embargo and the impact it is having and will have. More than 7,000 critical and essential posts have essentially been scrapped as a result of the embargo. Has the HSE ascertained how many essential posts this will have a direct impact on?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: On the Government's underfunding of the HSE and the impact that is having by way of the recruitment embargo, does Mr. Gloster agree that the message going out to young graduates who have gone through four years or more of college is that they are not wanted here and that they should go to Dubai, Canada or Australia?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: I will start with the national children's hospital. In October of last year the chief officer of the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board, David Gunning, was before the committee. He stated fairly categorically that the hospital would finally be completed after so many missed dates by 29 October 2024. He said there would be a six-month fit-out, and he would expect the first...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: Would Mr. Tierney be confident? There have been serious concerns in terms of the contractor being at full capacity, or anywhere near half-capacity. Are we confident at this point that the commitments that have been given by the contractor are being met?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: It is really hard to say. I will move on to another area, which is mental health services. There is a serious crisis in mental health going back a number of years. We have seen that play out quite graphically in Linn Dara in Cherry Orchard, where a number of beds are still closed. The goes back over a number of years. As we know, the appointment of a national director for mental health...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: Would Mr. Gloster not agree that there are governance and accountability issues going back many years? The most striking example was probably the scandal in the services in Kerry. Does he not think that comes down to governance and accountability being the primary concern?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: I mentioned the closure of inpatient beds in Linn Dara in Cherry Orchard. That is a huge setback in the provision of CAMHS. When will that unit be reopened? What is the cause of the serious shortage of beds in the system? I think there are 54 beds overall in the service, which is a fraction of what is required. There is a major crisis there. When will that unit be reopened?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: I refer back to a previous conversation with my colleague, when Mr. Walsh stated there is a roadmap to address some of the issues. Is there a similar roadmap to fill a critical service that is really at crisis point? At this stage I am not very optimistic, from his response, that we will see those beds open any time soon.
