Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Disability Support Services Funding (15 May 2019)

Margaret Murphy O'Mahony: I raised this issue as a Topical Issue matter last night and put one question to the Minister of State which he failed to answer. Therefore, I will put it to him again now. Does he believe the HSE could provide the services that RehabCare provides and is he prepared to state that the HSE would provide a better service? Even if Rehab provided a year's notice in terms of service delivery...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Disability Support Services Funding (15 May 2019)

Margaret Murphy O'Mahony: In going public on its funding difficulties, the Rehab Group is highlighting a developing crisis in the independent, not-for-profit sector, on which the health service is so reliant for disability services. This crisis has brought many organisations to the edge of financial sustainability and it is one which must be addressed directly and that needs to happen now. The report of the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: National Oral Health Policy: Discussion (15 May 2019)

Margaret Murphy O'Mahony: I apologise as I had to slip out for a while. I welcome the delegates. I really admire them for standing their ground and not accepting things. They did so in such a dignified manner. I say, "Well done," to them. The name of the policy is Smile and Sláinte. As the delegates are not smiling, perhaps we should consider a name change. I am very disappointed that there is no...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: National Oral Health Policy: Discussion (15 May 2019)

Margaret Murphy O'Mahony: That is good. I am also amazed that there was no consultation. If there is a plan, the people directly affected should have their opinions taken on board. It beggars belief the delegates were not consulted. Professor Stassen said people were afraid of the dentist. It seems that the Minister definitely is. The delegates are awaiting a meeting with him which I hope will take place. They...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: National Oral Health Policy: Discussion (15 May 2019)

Margaret Murphy O'Mahony: All of the delegates cannot be wrong. Mr. Hourihan has said the oral health policy fails to explain the reported level of dental decay and that it is seriously under-reported, involving as it does the exclusion of as many as 21% of children. Will the delegates expand on that matter? How could that happen?

Housing (Adaptation Grant for People with a Disability) Bill 2018: Second Stage [Private Members] (29 May 2019)

Margaret Murphy O'Mahony: The chronic lack of expediency in respect of housing grants is limiting the ability of people with disabilities to live independent lives. These grants are very popular and once applications are sanctioned, the transition goes quite smoothly most of the time. It is getting to this point that is the problem. The National Disability Inclusion Strategy 2017-2020 makes provision for a review...
