(11 May 2023)

Alan Dillon: I welcome our guests and wish Mr. Gloster the best of luck in his new role. I look forward to working with him, as I have done as a member of the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth.

Alan Dillon: How is the HSE going to deal with the potential influx of residents from private nursing homes into public ones due to the withdrawal of some of these homes from the fair deal scheme? Up to 20 have closed to date. Is that not a real concern? Is there capacity within the public system at the minute?

Alan Dillon: What current measures are being taken? Have any positive measures been taken? We listen to private nursing homes and they continue to see the disparities. It is not just in Cork, but in every region across the country.

Alan Dillon: I do not mean any disrespect to Mr. Gloster, who I know has been in this role for only a few months. Mr. Mulvany knows the situation because the concerns around private nursing homes, the operation of them and the financial burden associated with that has been raised at meetings of the Committee of Public Accounts and the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health. Again, we are here today...

Alan Dillon: That still does not address the core issue around the disparities in regard to the lower rates being offered to private nursing homes compared with public. Again, we are so reliant on the private sector that we see time and again that they are actually engaging with public representatives in addressing the issue. We are not listening to the challenges they are facing. I would like to get...

Alan Dillon: There is a shortage of GPs. However, we are now talking about those 70,000 Ukrainians and international protection applicants who now have medical cards and are looking for access to GP services. How are we addressing that situation?

Alan Dillon: Has there been any increased financial support for GPs or medical centres in regard to addressing the issue? For example, County Mayo has more than 4,000 additional Ukrainians and international protection applicants but we still have not had an increase in the GP count. All of these people have medical cards but nobody is talking about the issue of fair distribution of these guests onto the...
