Catherine Connolly: Cosúil leis an Teachta Aindrias Ó Muimhneacháin, ba mhaith liom mo bhuíochas a ghabháil leis an Teachta Browne as ucht an Bhille seo a chur os comhair na Dála. Gabhaim buíochas freisin leis an Leas-Cheann Comhairle, a thug cead dúinn díospóireacht beagáinín níos leithne a bheith againn. Tá súil agam go bhfuil an...

Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2017: Report and Final Stages (14 Jul 2017)

Catherine Connolly: Go raibh míle maith agat. I thank Deputy Browne for bringing the Bill before us. I welcome the opportunity to support it and to speak more broadly on this issue.

I cannot help...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Jul 2017)

Catherine Connolly: We have all followed up on this and it is extremely difficult to keep track of it. We are now dealing with it under correspondence and trying to keep track. We were clearly led to believe that this report would be published sooner than it was. We still have no date in that regard. It is totally unacceptable.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Jul 2017)

Catherine Connolly: I am more than conscious of that. Sometimes I am too conscious of it and too cautious but this has nothing to do with the inquiry. This is to do with Mr. O'Brien's role in giving open information. He said the report was about to be published but it has not been. It is simply not acceptable that a report of this nature is now taking even longer. It is adding insult to injury.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Jul 2017)

Catherine Connolly: I looked at that on 6 June. It is referring to a letter of 7 May that I could not find. I am subject to being corrected. I see a letter of 9 May 2017 with enclosures. Here we are again. We have Towards Healing writing into us to correct what Caranua said to us in correspondence. We are going back over it.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Jul 2017)

Catherine Connolly: When Caranua was in we asked precise questions. Each and every one of us asked precise questions on rent and the cap on counselling as best we could. Now we find the very organisation referred to by Caranua, namely, Towards Healing, is coming back to correct Caranua. Imagine how difficult it is for the survivors using the services. This is the end point, as is value for money. We can...
