Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Jan 2019)

Dara Calleary: Last April and May, the CervicalCheck controversy shook our nation's faith in our health service right to core. The heartbreaking stories of the families, and their courage and dignity in the face of what was facing them was seared on all our minds at the time. The Government and the Minister for Health made many promises in the immediate days and weeks after the controversy broke. It...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (24 Jan 2019)

Dara Calleary: The Tánaiste spoke about reassurance and about providing full transparency. These are essential to rebuilding trust and confidence in this necessary programme. This information, however, has had to be dragged out yet again. It was not provided through the HSE or primary care practitioners but on “Morning Ireland”. Surely the first port of contact should not have been...

As the Government was made aware of the backlog on 18 October, what did it do to get...

Dara Calleary: I join all of my colleagues in congratulating the Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, and wish him well at this time. With reference to the previous discussion, we need to provide reassurance - to use the Tánaiste's word - on two issues, the first of which is the backlog. Will the Government publish the medical advice the Minister for Health was given before he took the decision to...

Dara Calleary: I thank the Tánaiste. He speaks of the Government's understanding and respect for nurses, yet the front of today's Irish Examinerreports there are plans under way by the Government to dock nurses' pay increases and pension increases for striking. Can the Tánaiste confirm this is being discussed by the Government? What kind of message does the publishing of that story send out in...

Dara Calleary: Another issue the Government is putting its head in the sand about is the new GP contract for primary care. Elderly patients are being denied blood tests on their medical card because of this dispute. This issue has been long fingered for long enough. The Government is leaving general practitioners, GPs, waiting and now patients are left waiting. First, will the Tánaiste update us on...
