- National Maternity Services: Motion [Private Members] (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: Every time I have asked a question about this I have been told it is offered where clinically indicated to which I have replied how would someone know it was clinically indicated if the scan is not done. The Minister's commitment is welcome. We will hold him to it because it is a very essential and very basic service. We have included in this amendment reference to the newborn screening...
- National Maternity Services: Motion [Private Members] (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: I am asked about this regularly. We really need to hear completely and unequivocally that the hospital will operate free from any non-medical interference. During the campaign for the repeal of the eighth amendment, there was much discussion about women's health and healthcare needs. This was very welcome but the fine words contrast with the lived experience of women who use our maternity...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: I will try to pick up where the Chairman left off. Before I open the floor to members, I have one or two questions of my own. I will try to keep them brief because I know others have questions. On the operation of deficits and the manner in which they arise, the phrase "trading recklessly" was used by more than one person. Will the delegates describe for us the impact on the...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: It is clear the public recognises the deficits. The service users and people who work in the area do so. Unfortunately, the Department is unable or unwilling to recognise the deficits. Presumably, that has an impact on an organisation's capacity to plan on a year-by-year basis.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: In her opening statement, Dr. Day recommended there should be a "stronger and more visible role for the Department". Does she envisage that in the context of multi-annual funding? Presumably, the role is not strong enough or visible enough at the moment. What areas should be improved?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: Do the representative groups agree that there needs to be a stronger and more visible relationship with the Department? Is it easy for them to get access to the Department? Do they feel they have been listened to?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Voluntary Organisations in the Health Sector: Discussion (19 Jun 2019)
Louise O'Reilly: I have a question for Dr. Day. We could get into the rights and wrongs of the involvement of faith-based organisations in healthcare delivery but we would be here all day. Faith-based organisations are currently involved in 14 hospitals. Some would say that is 14 too many but the expectation is that the figure will eventually fall to four. Does Dr. Day have a timeline for achieving that...
