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....

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

Pat Buckley: More than 700 children with mental health difficulties are on a waiting list for specialist treatment services in the Cork and Kerry region, including 200 who are waiting more than a year. Delays in accessing CAMHS worsened recently in Cork North Lee, which closed to new referrals last month following the departure of a consultant psychiatrist. The HSE said referral rates among under 18s in...

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)

Pat Buckley: Page 129 of the programme for Government refers to flood response. 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. In Midleton in 2015 several county council houses flooded. The only response that we have seen is that Cork County Council...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care: Engagement with Minister for Health and Minister of State at the Department of Health (11 Jul 2018)

Pat Buckley: I thank the Minister, the Minister of State and all of the people seated in the Gallery for attending. I have had to wait so long to speak that all of the good questions have already been asked.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care: Engagement with Minister for Health and Minister of State at the Department of Health (11 Jul 2018)

Pat Buckley: Do the Minister and the Minister of State have full confidence in the management of the HSE? Let us consider the example of Linn Dara, where service users and their families were given five days prior notice of the cessation of day care. Surely that constitutes bad management? It feels like Groundhog Day because 11 beds were closed at Linn Dara last year and day-care services have been...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care: Engagement with Minister for Health and Minister of State at the Department of Health (11 Jul 2018)

Pat Buckley: Staff feel threatened if they even engage with us. It is serious. The buck stops with the Minister, the Minister of State and the Department. Surely they have the power to remove the toxicity from the HSE as an entity.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care: Engagement with Minister for Health and Minister of State at the Department of Health (11 Jul 2018)

Pat Buckley: There cannot be trust. It is front-line staff more than management who should be beatified. Dr. Harty mentioned pilot schemes. That is an idea. We could target areas where adolescent suicide rates are high, etc. On worldwide recruitment, ten years ago the HSE knew that there was going to be a problem in recruitment, but it could not plan for it. Again, it is bad planning. We...
