Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Rehabilitative Opportunities within the Prison System: Discussion (29 Mar 2022)

Pa Daly: I might come back to that point. Mr. Mullins made an interesting point about attempting to reintegrate people. Many of those I come across, both when I used to work in the courts and currently, are people who are not integrated at all. They are outsiders and they might be homeless. I note what Ms McCaffrey said about the integration sentence management, which deals with a combination of...

Pa Daly: In relation to what the former governor, Mr. Gavin, said about the workshops being routinely closed, as well as about all these waiting lists, would the IPS be address any of that in the next year or two? I refer particularly to the waiting lists for drug counsellors.

Pa Daly: Following on from what was said earlier on about open prisons, I note Mr. Graham is in an open prison now, having spent time in the other services.

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Local Authorities (5 Apr 2022)

Pa Daly: I am glad of the opportunity to raise this at such short notice. Recently, I met a family from Killarney, Steve O'Mahony, his wife, Teresa, and their daughter, Alexis. I want to raise an issue on their behalf. We discussed a cut that has been made to disability funding. This cut was not made by the HSE or the Department of Health. It is the removal of funding for ceiling track hoists...

In this case, a carer inevitably means Mr. and Mrs. O’Mahony. They are caring for their daughter who has a severe disability - cerebral palsy and quadriplegia - but are excluded from...
