Current Issues Affecting the Health Services: Motion [Private Members] (13 Dec 2022)

Rose Conway-Walsh: We must ask ourselves how we got to a point where we have the highest level of 25- to 29-year-olds being forced to live with their parents. Some 60.9% of that age cohort do not have a place to live independently. That is almost double what it was previously. That is shameful. Over 5,000 leaving certificate students put nursing or midwifery as their first preference on their CAO...

Appropriation Bill 2022: Second Stage (13 Dec 2022)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I support this Bill but want to make a couple of points about it, especially regarding the lack of investment, including in Mayo and the rest of the west. The failure to include the western rail corridor in the trans-European transport network, TEN-T, funding scheme is a missed opportunity. EU funding of up to 20% of the overall project value could be provided to successful applicants. We...

Confidence in Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage: Motion (13 Dec 2022)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I have no doubt it was said the Minister is working hard, and we are not disputing that, because I do not really know. What I do know is it is absolutely not working for the people in Mayo. To say we are doing our best is difficult to listen to because the Government designed the system that is not working, in the form of the housing assistance payment, HAP, the rental accommodation scheme,...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Protected Disclosures (8 Dec 2022)

Rose Conway-Walsh: This is the third time in two days that I have raised the issue of Western Care and what has come across my desk. I have deep, grave concerns about what has been reported on protected disclosures. The Minister knows what I am talking about. I want an independent investigation into these serious concerns. This is a matter relating to the most vulnerable people in our community. The...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Hospital Facilities (8 Dec 2022)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I appreciate the fact that the Minister has met with the clinicians. He will know that the clinicians have done a huge amount of work on this. They are really busy people, but they have an expertise and they really care about what is happening in the region. The truth is, as the clinicians have pointed out, if you live in that region and you are accessing the cancer services there, it is...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Home Care Packages (8 Dec 2022)

Rose Conway-Walsh: I am aware of cases in which the patient is in hospital and has been deemed eligible for a home care package but has not been able to get it, and then the hospital charges the patient for the extended stay. The hospital charges the patient because the other end of the HSE service cannot provide the home care that is necessary. Will the Minister of State make it clear today that hospitals...
