Select Committee on Health: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee Stage (17 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I move amendment No. 1: In page 6, line 9, after “section 5” to insert “, known as the Kathleen Lynn National Children’s Hospital”. I appreciate, as some people have said, that this is not the appropriate place to legislate for the name of the hospital, but if we do not do it here, then I am not sure when we are going to have the opportunity to be able...

Select Committee on Health: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee Stage (17 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: Chairman, at this point I will withdraw the amendment, but I will resubmit it on Report Stage. For the purpose of the record, I still have to hear some good arguments for not naming the hospital after Kathleen Lynn.

Select Committee on Health: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee Stage (17 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I move amendment No. 3: In page 8, to delete lines 24 to 26. The purpose of this amendment is to have a discussion about the subsection. The hospital board has a mission, which is to provide paediatric health care to children across the State. It is a mystery to me why the hospital would need to become a member of a company. It seems that it would be operating nearly as a separate...

Select Committee on Health: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee Stage (17 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: The Minister refers to the current children's hospitals and the fact that they operate as section 38 agencies. Do they have the facility that he is seeking to insert in this section, that is the facility to borrow for current purposes?

Select Committee on Health: Children's Health Bill 2018: Committee Stage (17 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I am referring to the other three children's hospitals. I wish to understand the reason that if the three hospitals do not have this why the Minister of State would seek to introduce it now. The Minister referenced the concern I have but did not address it. It strikes me as problematic that a section 38 hospital, as we are establishing this new hospital, would have the capacity to borrow...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: New Standard Operating Procedure for Assessment of Need under the Disability Act 2005: Discussion (Resumed) (17 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I echo the point that has just been made, as it would not be early intervention if people must wait years for it. It falls at the first hurdle under the definition. I thank the witnesses for coming in. When we discussed this previously, one of the matters raised concerned the inconsistencies throughout the country. My question is simple and concerns models of best practice. Do we have...

Criminal Justice (Victims of Crime) (Amendment) Bill 2018: Second Stage [Private Members] (16 Oct 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I welcome the Bill, which will have my support and that of my party. The Bill seeks to provide greater support to the victims of sexual violence, something that is much needed and sought after. It will allow victims who have been subjected to a sexual assault, gender-based violence or violence in close relationships to be afforded free legal advice, giving them the opportunity to receive...
