To ask the Minister for Health further to Parliamentary Question Nos. 826 and 827 of 8 May 2019, if his attention has been drawn to the fact that medical distribution companies are travelling to the Netherlands to collect medicinal cannabis on behalf of patients in Northern Ireland and delivering it to the patients; and the reason a similar arrangement cannot be achieved for patients...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Health Screening Programmes (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I welcome the clarification provided by the Minister and have no difficulty with the sentiment expressed about the need for cool and calm heads. I wish to take this opportunity to pay tribute to Ruth Morrissey, who has been to hell and back. The judgment raises concerns and has had a chilling effect across the clinical community. I am particularly thinking of Dr. Ailín Rogers, the...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Health Screening Programmes (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: In the absence of the advice of the Attorney General, which I appreciate takes time and, obviously, will not be fully shared with the House, although some version of it can and should be shared, the chief medical officer may have a role in engaging with the clinical community because, as has been pointed out, there is a vacuum and those in the medical and clinical community would greatly...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Health Screening Programmes (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: 34. To ask the Minister for Health his views on the future of the CervicalCheck screening programme and other screening programmes in view of the High Court judgment for screeners to have absolute confidence in their finding before giving the all-clear when reading a test slide, even though every screening test has an intrinsic error rate.

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Paediatric Services (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: 4. To ask the Minister for Health if the necessary staff have been recruited to ensure that the paediatric outpatient department and urgent care centre at Connolly Hospital can be operational from 8 a.m. until midnight, seven days a week, as was previously committed. [20933/19]

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Paediatric Services (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: Like my previous question, this relates to staffing. It concerns commitments given that the paediatric outpatient and urgent care centre for Blanchardstown will open from 8 a.m. until midnight. I want to know if the requisite staff have been recruited because, at this stage, these are probably people who are already in the system or, hopefully, coming from abroad, so they will have given...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Paediatric Services (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: It is clear the centre will not open from 8 a.m. until midnight, although perhaps the Minister can confirm to me that he expects it to open at those times. With regard to consultants in paediatric emergency medicine, paediatric radiology, histopathology, haematology and orthopaedics, those are areas where, if we do not have the requisite number of consultants, we will not be able to run...

Louise O'Reilly: All I heard from that was locums and outsourcing.

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Paediatric Services (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: I will disregard much of the rest of the fluff. The Minister said ten consultant positions have been recruited. How many of those are coming from the other hospitals? Are they all coming from abroad? Are they all new entrants into the system? Will they provide the additionality the Minister says will be provided? We have just agreed that without additional staff, there will be no...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Health Services Staff Recruitment (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: 2. To ask the Minister for Health the reason there has been a persistence with a recruitment embargo in the midst of a recruitment and retention crisis in the health service; and if his attention has been drawn to the fact that persons who were offered jobs are now being told that the positions are no longer available [20932/19]

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Health Services Staff Recruitment (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: The question hardly needs explaining because it is quite simple. In the context of a recruitment and retention crisis, ever-escalating waiting lists and a seemingly endless budget for agency staff and the national children's hospital, why has an embargo been placed on the hiring of staff in the health service? It was wrong when such an embargo was implemented by the then Fianna Fáil...

Ceisteanna - Questions - Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Health Services Staff Recruitment (15 May 2019)

Louise O'Reilly: It is like déjà vuall over again. The Minister's predecessor when Fianna Fáil was in government did not call it an embargo either, but we all know that is what it was. I am little shocked. The Minister will state that he pays hospital managers very well, but they simply have not bothered to submit a plan. They are his words, not mine. He is happy that there are people at a...
