Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Mental Health Services (9 Nov 2023)

David Cullinane: I appreciate that but it is certainly nowhere near enough for what is required. I have on many occasions, both in this Chamber and outside it, welcomed an awful lot of very good work done by both the Minister and the Minister of State, Deputy Butler, and I will always acknowledge where good work is done, good initiatives put in place and additional funding made available. Nevertheless, it...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Mental Health Services (9 Nov 2023)

David Cullinane: Again, I am duty-bound to point out that a scathing Mental Health Commission report on CAMHS made a lot of recommendations, some of which, I understand, will be implemented, whereas in the case of others, the Government is pushing back against them. The Government might have its reasons to push back against them, but we cannot push back against the dire need to invest in CAMHS services to...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Mental Health Services (9 Nov 2023)

David Cullinane: The number of children on CAMHS waiting lists has doubled from 2,000 to 4,000 under this Government. More than 16,000 children are on waiting lists for psychology and more than 6,000 young people have presented to emergency departments due to a mental health illness since 2019 because they do not have alternative care pathways. CAMHS does not seem to be the solution for them. The service...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Health Strategies (9 Nov 2023)

David Cullinane: Last year, the HSE published the national stroke strategy from 2022 to 2027, which I fully supported. It received €4.9 million in funding for 2023. I understand that approximately €1 million worth of posts are unfilled and there are concerns over their funding. For 2024, the national stroke programme requires millions of euro for 75 essential additional posts to safely staff...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Health Strategies (9 Nov 2023)

David Cullinane: This shows again that it was quite dangerous not to properly fund the health service for next year but also not provide any additional funding for new measures. As I suspected, any additional funding that will come to the national stroke strategy is simply to stand still and is funding for existing levels of service. Some 6,000 people have a stroke every year and 2,000 of them do not get to...

Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Health Strategies (9 Nov 2023)

David Cullinane: The reason we tabled the questions the way we did is to cut through all of the spin and essentially lay bare the consequences of a Government that does not properly fund our health services. As Minister for Health, the Minister knows a huge mistake was made in not properly funding the health services even to stand still but what is worse is that if we do not provide new funding each year,...
