Chapter 13 - Development of ICT Systems by the Department of Justice and Equality
Vote 24: Justice and Equality (26 Apr 2018)

Alan Kelly: It is for clarity and it is very important. I have read the Collins report and it said it was an issue that certain people in the policing area were not checked, including the Minister and advisers. Are we saying that to this day, as a Department, mobile phone records, private emails and departmental emails, or some combination of those, have not been trawled through?

Alan Kelly: Is there a script?

National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)

Alan Kelly: Here we go again - Magdalen laundries, hepatitis C, Brigid McCole, Susie Long, Rebecca O'Malley, a neighbour of mine, Amanda Mellet, who I brought to meet the Minister, and now Vicky Phelan. We have a real problem in this country protecting women's health. This issue is on the Minister's watch. He needs to do the right thing. I join with thanking Vicky for her openness and for the way she...

National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)

Alan Kelly: Obviously, we know that only for Vicky Phelan and the publicity that the Department of Health figured out was going to be generated, we would not be here talking about this tonight. We are thinking about her tonight. She is watching this debate. I wonder what she is thinking as further revelations are literally happening live in this Chamber. She tweeted a while ago to say "I will be...

National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)

Alan Kelly: Ms Vicky Phelan will be talking about this on "Prime Time". Instead of maintaining confidence, the people who did not do their jobs and said this to the Minister as he walked in here tonight are causing a crisis.

National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)

Alan Kelly: I will move on but the Acting Chairman is taking up my time. He should put on a minute at the end. This is ridiculous and it is too sensitive an issue to be like that.

National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)

Alan Kelly: How will the Minister deal with this? Who told him this? Why did those people not do their job? Why, as a result, has a national crisis been caused tonight? Will the Minister assure the House now that there will be no revelations tomorrow?

National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)

Alan Kelly: This is critical. There were one or two contributions tonight that were simply wrong, specifically the commentary relating to the Minister. I believe what the Minister is saying but there is a real issue. The Minister is managing a live process. He was told something earlier and he acted on facts over the weekend. This Dáil debated facts that were wrong, and that cannot happen...
