Health and Safety (Funfair) (Amendment) Bill 2017: Second Stage [Private Members] (13 Jun 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I am speaking on behalf of my colleague, Deputy Quinlivan, who cannot attend. I thank Deputy Niall Collins and his colleagues for introducing this important Bill, which seeks to impose on funfair operators a legal duty not to injure a person intentionally and a new duty not to act with reckless disregard for a person at a funfair in respect of any danger that exists there. Such a breach...

Louise O'Reilly: Will the Minister confirm that we will see legislation for safe zones or buffer zones for women who are using medical facilities?

Home Help Service Provision: Statements (12 Jun 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I, too, would appreciate being allowed to speak without interruption. The Minister of State said there would be 800,000 more hours delivered than in 2018. Later he stated that between January and April, the additionality was actually 144,000 hours. That leaves a figure of 342,000 hours for the year. I am multiplying the figure for four months by three. That leaves us very short of the...

Home Help Service Provision: Statements (12 Jun 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: That does not add up. I did not come here just to shout and roar; I actually came to get an answer. The Minister of State's remark does not make any logical sense to me. The HSE will deliver only 342,000 additional hours for the whole year based on what is happening. It is all going to be allocated towards the end of the year, which just does not make any sense. The Minister of State and...

I know because I used to represent the staff that the cost of a directly employed HSE home help is between €13 and €16 per hour. The last time Fianna Fáil was in government, I remember well marching for decency for home help workers. I welcome the party's...

Home Help Service Provision: Statements (12 Jun 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The Minister of State spoke in praise of home helps and acknowledged the great work they do. I do not know if I could appeal to his heart, so I might try appealing to his head. The home help service represents good value for money because it is a cost-effective way of keeping people out of hospital, which is an expensive place for them to be. We have learned in recent weeks that the HSE...
