- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (4 May 2023)
Brian Stanley: Just over 1,600 homes a year are being built. We must find out from the Department what steps it has taken since it was last before the committee to try to speed it up and whether there is a problem. The Deputy highlighted that there may be an issue, particularly in some local authorities where people are not designated to projects. We are told more funding is available to bring in extra...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (4 May 2023)
Brian Stanley: We have agreed to note that other piece of correspondence. I thank Mr. McCarthy for the update on the matter. There is one more B item, No. R1870 B, from the Secretary General of the Department of Health. It is proposed to consider this in private session. Is that agreed? Agreed. The next category of correspondence is category C, correspondence from and related to private...

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Brian Stanley: I know it will be a big ship to steer. Mr. Gloster is the third HSE CEO we have had appearing before the committee in the past year, with the exit of Paul Reid, who appeared before the committee on a number of occasions. The gap was filled by Mr. Gloster's colleague, Mr. Mulvany, at the most recent meeting we had with the HSE. Mr. Gloster's statement is quite long in the context of his...

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Brian Stanley: I thank Mr. Gloster for that. I do not expect Mr. Gloster to have a detailed briefing on it today, and I am aware it is a sensitive matter, and I do not require Mr. Gloster to go into the figures about how much home care costs per hour, but I understand up to now it was €26.50 per hour, which has been the arrangement with the private providers. I do have a question for Mr. Gloster....

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Brian Stanley: Off the top of his head, I believe Mr. Gloster has the breakdown, what percentage of the hours are provided by the HSE, by the voluntary sector and by the private providers?

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Brian Stanley: So would it be 30% or 40% private and about 20% voluntary. Would it be around those figures?

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Brian Stanley: I have one last question in relation to it. I have tried to get this information previously by way of parliamentary questions, but with difficulty. Will Mr. Gloster tell me what is the cost per hour for directly employed HSE home care? Figures on this are bounced about in the media sometimes. What is the cost per hour? I am aware that Mr. Gloster will not have this figure off the top of...

Special Report No. 114 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Emergency Procurement of Ventilators by the HSE
Vote 38 - Health (11 May 2023) Brian Stanley: There is a review going on in regard to that. We raised that previously. In regard to the number of GPs, as was already said, the shortage of GPs and the difficulties in accessing general practitioner services is loading on problems further up the line in emergency department units, and in people not being treated in time. Mr. Gloster stated that 300 extra students are entering training...
