RTÉ: Statements (28 Feb 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I honestly do not know what to say and whose word can be trusted in this saga anymore - the Minister, the former chair, the DG, the Minister's officials and advisers, the former Secretary General of the Department or the string of characters that have now disappeared off into the sunset with a full wallet. The State broadcaster, which is on its knees, is playing Monopoly money with public...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: An Inclusive Education for an Inclusive Society: Discussion (28 Feb 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: Ms Walsh is fine. It was mentioned that there was not a lot of international evidence and data available to be able to point to the tracking of outcomes and if there are differences in outcomes, perhaps more positive outcomes, for those in mainstream or special classes. I think that was mentioned.

Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2023: Second Stage (Resumed) [Private Members] (27 Feb 2024)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I begin by commending this excellent Bill, which proposes some things I have mentioned in this House and in committees on many occasions. I also acknowledge the mobilisation of Families for Reform of CAMHS. It has done Trojan work, but its action is a direct result of inaction. We say this quite often in the House, but this inaction has caused major hurt. I was shocked, appalled and, to...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (27 Feb 2024)

The future is not looking bright as long as the National Treatment Purchase Fund, NTPF, continues to lowball them in contract negotiations....
