- Committee on Health and Children: Select Sub-Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Children First Bill 2014: Committee Stage (30 Apr 2015)
Catherine Byrne: Whether one is in an agency, a grandparent or somebody who decides to take a person into their home to mind a baby, this is what this Bill is about. I know it is in different sections, but am I wrong to say - correct me if I am wrong, because I am here to learn - that everything in this Bill means that children are protected under people who mind children, whether in a family or an agency...

Catherine Byrne: Please let the Minster answer. I understand that, but the first part and the definitions cover all those things as far as I am concerned, whether one is talking about groups or individuals. Am I wrong or right to say that?

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: HIQA Investigation into Midland Regional Hospital, Portlaoise (Resumed): Parents and Patient Advocates (19 May 2015)
Catherine Byrne: I thank the delegates for being here and allowing us to listen to part of their stories about losing their babies. I have read the report. I was not here for the meeting last week, but I have read the transcript and listened to the playback of it. I learned that the delegates had been treated barbarically.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: HIQA Investigation into Midland Regional Hospital, Portlaoise (Resumed): Health Service Executive (19 May 2015)
Catherine Byrne: The Chairman should not say that. He is raising expectations. What happened in Portlaoise hospital is a reflection of very bad management. Mr. O'Brien referred to compassion seven times in his opening statement. He spoke about not doing unto others anything that one would not like done to oneself. However, for the families that were here this morning, there was no compassion. One woman...

- Midland Regional Hospital: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (27 May 2015)
Catherine Byrne: What has happened in Portlaoise hospital is unacceptable and beyond belief. I read the HIQA report in full with a heavy heart. It shocked and upset me and even made me really angry. How on earth was this allowed to happen? The HSE not only failed parents who lost their new babies due to negligence and mismanagement but caused great trauma and sadness for families, which they will bear for...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Amnesty International Report on Ireland's Abortion Laws: Discussion (9 Jun 2015)
Catherine Byrne: I have no questions, but would like to thank Amnesty International for its presentation. Reading a document like this takes time and needs thought and reflection. Others have spoken about the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Act, and it was mentioned in the report. As a Member of the Dáil for a number of years, I found it an intriguing - I use that word with the greatest respect -...
