Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (30 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The rare disease plan recommends that we expand the number of conditions for which newborn babies are screened. Yesterday, in the audiovisual room, at a briefing organised by Deputy Brady, we heard from the fathers of two children whose conditions could have been diagnosed at birth. These children, Cathal and Ciarán, known locally as Cogs and Kiwi, and a baby named Juniper have become...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (30 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I asked fairly specific questions, one of which relates to the Judicial Council Bill 2017 and the amendments to it. We have heard repeated requests for co-operation from Opposition parties but it is difficult for us to co-operate if the amendments have not even been published. I also requested that the Government give consideration to the establishment of a Garda insurance fraud unit....

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (30 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The issue of rising insurance costs is a massive problem impacting many individuals and small businesses throughout the State. Businesses are having to curtail their activities. Many have had to close their doors. Jobs are being lost and communities are suffering because of the painstakingly slow pace of insurance reform. We heard here last month from Linda Murray from Navan who broke...

Development of Primary Care: Statements (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The health service is our most important public service. It is there for us when we are born, throughout our lives and at the end.

Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I am sure the Taoiseach will not thank us for raising the issue of insurance costs although I am not raising it in the context of what everyone else is discussing in that regard. I am prompted by a constituent who contacted me to advise that Fingal Adventure Centre will not open at North Beach, Rush. It is saying it is because of the astronomical quotations it has received. We have no...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Developments in Mental Health Services: Discussion (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank all our witnesses for coming in this morning. I join with my colleague in saying it is a refreshing and welcome change to have an all-female panel. People will be jumping onto Twitter now to give out about me saying that. They had better preface that by showing examples of them giving out on occasions there has been an all-male panel. People do not give out about that. I welcome...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Developments in Mental Health Services: Discussion (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The difficulty I have is not that there may not be a place for it in a functioning mental health system but that we have a dysfunctional mental health system and the supports do not exist at the moment. This is something I have recently taken an interest in. My worry is that this is a cheap way of offering support. It is, obviously, always going to be less labour-intensive and all of that....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Developments in Mental Health Services: Discussion (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: Would it make sense that these services should be put to one side for the moment in favour of developing the more traditional services? Telemedicine is quite new. I have to put my cards on the table and state that I do not like it, although that is my personal opinion. I would prefer to see a doctor or mental health professional. In the absence of services being developed, I would caution...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Developments in Mental Health Services: Discussion (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: Absolutely. I have one very brief question that relates to attendance at accident and emergency units. I know because there are people in my constituency who have come to my office because they have had to bring a loved one to an accident and emergency department. The person does not have a physical ailment but he or she literally has nowhere else to go so the only door that is open to him...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Developments in Mental Health Services: Discussion (29 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: It is. In a scenario where one can schedule appointments and only hit that crisis between 9 a.m and 5 p.m., even at that, someone is still not guaranteed that he or she will get the service he or she needs. This is unscheduled care no matter which way one looks at it and having a nine-to-five service is no use to someone at midnight. It is very regrettable not just for the patient but also...
