Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care: Health Sector Pay Report: Public Service Pay Commission (26 Sep 2018)

Pat Buckley: I welcome the witnesses and thank them for their presentation. I have some very brief questions. I am frustrated about the recruitment and retention issue. Mr. Duffy mentioned positions for nursing being oversubscribed, but there is a swallow hole of emptiness when it comes to looking for specific staff in areas of the mental health sector. I cannot understand it. If one needs a pound of...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (20 Sep 2018)

Pat Buckley: I thank the Minister of State for her answer. I am not surprised that it is more of a generic one. I am happy that Cork was mentioned in the answer because normally when one asks about a pen in this House, it is not in the answer. It does not mention any solutions. It mentions 168,000 young people under the age of 18 who are waiting for this or that. There does not seem to be a plan....

Future of the Post Office Network: Motion (18 Sep 2018)

Pat Buckley: I commend Deputy Brian Stanley on bringing forward this motion, which I urge the House to support. The Minister, Deputy Naughten, and the Minister of State, Deputy Kyne, both surprisingly said that it is important to remember that when a post office closes 70% of the business transfers to a neighbouring office, but the knock-on effect of a post office closure is that 100% of that service is...

Questions on Promised Legislation (12 Jul 2018)

It says:Following the unprecedented flooding in December 2015 we will review the response protocols of the State to examine if a more rapid and co-ordinated response to local incidents can be achieved.
