Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks Bill 2022: Discussion (23 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I welcome the witnesses to the meeting today. From a County Clare perspective, it has been very frustrating. Whereas people from counties Donegal and Mayo have had more than two years of at least informal negotiation with the Department of Housing Local Government and Heritage and officials, the first negotiation with residents of County Clare took place on Monday of last week. Earlier,...

Cathal Crowe: We are the last county to see IS 465 testing. It only happened in spring this year. It seems to be a different beast to the IS 465 testing of homeowners in Donegal and Mayo, and that point must be noted as the structure of this is put together. I will probe further on the damage threshold of a 1.5 mm crack. On the one hand we can believe it is preparing a hierarchy for some homes to...

Insurance Reform: Statements (22 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I thank the Minister of State for being in the Chamber for this important debate. In the winter of 2009, I had not been long re-elected to Clare County Council.

Cathal Crowe: Away from politics, I had reason to take my car for a national car test, NCT, last week. I was also in the accident and emergency department of University Hospital Limerick. More is known about my car's service history and performance, which is transferable to the next owner, than is known about the patients in the accident and emergency department at the hospital. Information is not...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Rare Diseases: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: I welcome our guests. I have been following some of the meeting. There are a few meetings coinciding this morning so forgive me if some of my questions repeat what others have asked. I will take up where my colleague, Deputy Colm Burke, left off on cystic fibrosis and Kaftrio. These 35 children, last month, in the age-six-to-11 category were due to receive this drug and the floor has...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Rare Diseases: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: Mr. Flanagan has explained that very well. I met with the Minister, Deputy Stephen Donnelly, and Mr. Flanagan has given the extra layers of detail he is privy to. I know this is sensitive, that negotiations are ongoing and that Mr. Flanagan is mindful of all these children waiting in the wings for the news. Can he give any indication of when these negotiations might wrap up? We do not...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Rare Diseases: Discussion (Resumed) (22 Jun 2022)

Cathal Crowe: It is devastating. I know Mr. Flanagan is doing his best. I spoke to one dad whose son has this and misses out by a number of months. That boy watched his cousin die during Covid from cystic fibrosis complications. It is a life and death matter. I do not wish to overstate that. The date, 1 January, is the cut-off date for kids qualifying for age categories in the GAA. That is the age...
