Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024)

Verona Murphy: I am talking about services that are in existence like the Parenting Network, Parents Plus and many others around the country. Where the HSE is falling down in providing the CAMHS network, from where do we get support for parents who cannot access or are awaiting access? They need support. As a parent, I would find it extremely difficult to deal with any child, including my own, who had a...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (1 Feb 2024)

Verona Murphy: I concur with Deputy Dillon. The terms of the Grant Thornton report we received were particularly protectionist. I do not think it is acceptable. God knows how much it cost. That there was no finding of fact and all of that is very protectionist and we should have an unredacted version, given that the public purse was paying.

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (30 Jan 2024)

Verona Murphy: I will not keep the House. I know we are over time. The people of New Ross, my local town, got some very concerning news last week that An Post is going to tender for a contractor for the post office. Their first concern is that it is in the heart of the town and there are eight people employed who have become part of the community over the years. They are very concerned if a contractor...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (25 Jan 2024)

Verona Murphy: I was not going to bring this up today but I will do so because we are in the year of elections. Today we have announced the wordings for the referendums to take place on 8 March. Particularly in light of the last Leaders' Questions, when someone was accused of being disingenuous, I would like to speak about falsehoods. People want to know what stance our political and party leaders are...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (25 Jan 2024)

Verona Murphy: I thank the Tánaiste. The only question that was asked was whether Fianna Fáil has a policy with regard to its own elected representatives. The Tánaiste did not tell us what that policy is. That is what people want to know. Is there a sanction for Fianna Fáil's elected representatives? The Tánaiste said he was the victim of such a profile and had to go to the...

Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (24 Jan 2024)

Verona Murphy: I want to appeal to the Taoiseach's better nature on the means test relating to family carers, carer's allowance and half-rate carer's allowance. Statistics from Family Carers Ireland show that carers save the State €20 billion per annum. We are about to put a referendum to the people that lauds carers, and yet we are means testing 95,000 of them. We do not know what the cost of...
