Leaders' Questions. (1 Jun 2005)

Enda Kenny: Yesterday, following the "Prime Time" programme, the focus of attention was on the Leas Cross nursing home and the need to tackle the systematic and grossly unacceptable practices in place there.

Leaders' Questions. (1 Jun 2005)

Enda Kenny: In view of the appalling inadequacy of the inspection regime, has the Taoiseach called in the Health Services Executive to ascertain on whose instructions advance notice of inspection was, and is, given to all nursing homes? That is akin to giving the question papers to next week's leaving certificate students. It is a complete failure of this Government to have introduced an inspection...

Enda Kenny: The Taoiseach has given an appallingly cynical answer.

Leaders' Questions. (1 Jun 2005)

Enda Kenny: He has not answered any question and it is typical of his governance that while he is more interested in ticking boxes and defending the inadequacy of the HSE by saying it does not give advance notice of inspections, 80 nursing homes were inspected once in 2004, when the legal requirement is two inspections per year of 480 private nursing homes.

Dublin-Monaghan Bombings. (1 Jun 2005)

Enda Kenny: I thank the Taoiseach for his reply. There is one more report due from the Barron inquiry relating to the Dundalk, Castleblayney and Miami Showband atrocities. Does the Taoiseach know when he might receive that or when it will be presented to the House?
