Louise O'Reilly: If the Government simply kept the promises it made-----

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Waiting Lists (26 Sep 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: When the Dáil resumed last week, a father, Mr. Aaron Daly, was waiting outside Government Buildings for the Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, because he wanted to tell him about his lovely daughter Sophia who is waiting for scoliosis surgery. Notwithstanding that others took the time to talk to him, the Minister did not, which is disappointing. Mr. Daly is one of a large number of...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Waiting Lists (26 Sep 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the Minister of State for his reply but it was an elaborate response to a question I did not ask. This is about children with complex needs. The Government's mechanism for dealing with these children is simply to move them from the primary list to a suspended list. These children do not need an action plan or another working group; they are in pain and need surgery. Is this lost...

General Scheme of the Patient Safety Bill 2018: Department of Health (26 Sep 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: Four agencies are mentioned in head 9. Those agencies are the ones which will be in receipt of the reportable incident. Will we have a very tight definition of what constitutes a reportable incident? With regard to who has ownership of the information, there is potential for two or possibly three of those agencies to be holding information at the same time. Who has ultimate responsibility...

Louise O'Reilly: -----will be provided? With regard to the publication of the clinical audit results, is it intended to publish the reasons the audit was undertaken in the first place? That might be useful information to have. With regard to HIQA and the regulation of public and private hospitals, is it intended that places that are not hospitals but smaller places where one can go for cosmetic surgery and...

General Scheme of the Patient Safety Bill 2018: Department of Health (26 Sep 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: The powers to monitor are important, but the powers to enforce are even more so. While the monitoring is welcome, without the powers to enforce the Bill will probably not have the desired effect. Sin é.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Business of Joint Committee
General Scheme of the Patient Safety Bill 2018: Department of Health (26 Sep 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: My question was more about the fact that four agencies could potentially all have the same piece of information. Is there going to be a link-up between them? The last thing we want is for four agencies which all have the same piece of information to be looking at the other agencies and thinking that it is the other agencies' job to deal with it rather than their own. Where the information...
