Pa Daly: I have one question about the extra money provided to the Legal Aid Board for providing legal advice and services to victims of sexual violence. There are a lot of cases coming before the courts in which there is a background of domestic violence involving, for example, breaches of protection orders and barring orders. In my experience, many of those cases are dropped before they are to be...

Pa Daly: One of my questions has been asked. The State is considering becoming involved and that has not been ruled out. Am I correct in thinking that?

Pa Daly: To follow on from what Deputy Kenny said about the ombudsman, and what the Minister said, I did notice a case recently where a nurse in the hospital in Kerry was dissatisfied with the nature of a Garda complaint. She appealed to the ombudsman and she was not happy with the response. Since then, the Garda has reopened an investigation. Perhaps there is a difficulty with independence. Are...

Pa Daly: Regarding the public private partnership, PPP, costs, the Estimate provides for an annual payment for €38 million in 2022. I think the payment for the Criminal Courts of Justice, CCJ, takes up about €27 million of that total, but I could be corrected on that figure. Does the Minister think this spending is still good value for money? It seems to be the model that is...

Pa Daly: That is fine as long as the Minister is happy with the delivery of service by the PPPs. Does she think it is good value for money to spend €38 million per year? My understanding is that the Criminal Courts of Justice cost €27 million per year for 25 years when it was constructed in the late noughties, which is a total amount of nearly half a billion euro. I do not think that...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (15 Feb 2022)

Pa Daly: This day fortnight, the Circuit Court trials which are supposed to start in Tralee and have done for generations will once again commence in Limerick city, which means all the jury members, the legal teams, Garda working in Kerry and witnesses will be taken out of the county for a period of five weeks. Not only is this inconvenient for all of those people, it flies in the face of the...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Mental Health Services (15 Feb 2022)

Pa Daly: 62. To ask the Minister for Health the status of the implementation of the south Kerry CAMHS review recommendations; the status of the State-wide review and prescription audit and of a review into north Kerry CAMHS; the supports provided by the HSE to parents and children affected by the CAMHS scandal since the launch of the look back review; and if he will make a statement on the matter....

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Mental Health Services (15 Feb 2022)

Pa Daly: The recent review of the south Kerry CAMHS comprised 74 pages and 35 recommendations and it proclaimed the contact it had with parents, patients and former patients who are now adults. However, many of them have been in touch with me and told me that there has not been much contact with them, that there is no care plan in place, that they have not seen a psychologist who must be independent...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Mental Health Services (15 Feb 2022)

Pa Daly: I thank the Minister of State. There is an obvious problem with recruitment. Things are going to have to change. At one stage, we received a glib reply to the effect that this is a €200,000 per annum post and so there is no reason people would not want to travel to Kerry and stay there. It is not just about psychiatrists. Consultants who go to the general hospital need support...

Pa Daly: I thank the Minister of State. They are all good proposals, but I cannot stress enough the urgency and the importance of communication with the patients and their families. I was contacted by one family whose daughter suffered from chronic fatigue and experienced social anxiety going into secondary school, in respect of which she was put on antipsychotic medication which is used to treat...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: An Garda Síochána (15 Feb 2022)

Pa Daly: During the 1970s and 1980s, "the murder squad" or "heavy gang", whatever way one wishes to describe it, travelled around this State when requested. It operated collectively and it often thought collectively. It formed a consensus. Sometimes it was the right conclusion but other times, and on too many occasions, it was wrong. Its conclusions were sometimes outrageous, sometimes malicious...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: An Garda Síochána (15 Feb 2022)

Pa Daly: I thank the Minister of State for the reply. Because it is the case I am most familiar with, I want to raise the Kerry babies case. The initial inquiry was a total whitewash and while Joanne Hayes and her family were vindicated through a settlement, there are a number of outstanding issues. One is that the apology did not go far enough. For the gardaí to say the investigation fell...
