Questions on Promised Legislation (14 Jun 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: On the same matter, central to the crisis, which is just one on the list of crises to which we continually refer which are presided over by the Minister's Government, is the issue of recruitment and retention. It is only weeks since a Sinn Féin Private Members' motion was passed which instructed the Government to prioritise pay as part of the recruitment and retention process. This has...

Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Water Supply Leakages (13 Jun 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the Minister of State for taking this matter. It is regrettable that the Minister, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, is not here to take it, particularly as it is very serious. There is not much in the form of commitment to a timeline for people, although we welcome the commitment that this will be financed. It should be borne in mind that more houses are being built as we speak. As a result,...

Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Water Supply Leakages (13 Jun 2018)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: General Scheme of the Patient Safety (Licensing) Bill: Discussion (13 Jun 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: Some items would be on the "that would be nice if we had absolutely nothing else to do" list. They would be the icing on the cake. However, I am worried about the subjective standards in the middle, which someone might look at and say, "It would be nice if we could do that, but we do not have the resources at the time or the scope." If as much as possible can be made mandatory, albeit not...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: General Scheme of the Patient Safety (Licensing) Bill: Discussion (13 Jun 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: Is that based on there being a quick turnaround time though? I can see the issues with this because dealing with all these hospitals will be a logistical issue, but if this process were to go on for a long time, for whatever reason - it would not necessarily be anyone's fault - we could have a mythical licensing system with the bulk of the hospitals operating outside it. Was any thought...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: General Scheme of the Patient Safety (Licensing) Bill: Discussion (13 Jun 2018)

If the legislators were minded to give HIQA stronger powers of...
