Affordable Housing: Statements (Resumed) (29 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: As Deputy Funchion has pointed out, housing is one of the foremost issues that we deal with in our constituency offices. Day in and day out, Marian in my office is heartbroken with people who are facing homelessness. They have absolutely no faith in this Government to deliver for them. That is not based on anything other than an assessment of all of the available facts. There are children...

HPV Vaccine: Motion [Private Members] (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank Deputy Alan Kelly and Members of the Labour Party for introducing this motion. We will be supporting it. There can be no equivocation. The HPV vaccination programme and information campaign must be supported, and it must be supported by all of us. We have to lead by example on this. Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer that affects women worldwide. It is linked...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals on Health Technology Assessment (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the Chairman. I will be as quick as I can. I thank the deputations for attending. By way of a general point, it seems that everything functions reasonably well and everyone seems to be fairly happy. I am a little lost as to why we particularly need this measure. Dr. MacLellan has advised that Ireland has outlined its general support for the regulation and emphasised the...

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I bid the Minister of State and his officials a good morning. When members ask these questions, we tend to throw about 57,000 issues at the Minister, which means we tend to get very vague answers. It is hard not to take such an approach because there are deficiencies in so many areas but if I can I will try to focus on a number of areas. One is scoliosis. That is something we have raised...

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: The IMO has already indicated that it is not in that space and it wants to talk about the reversal of FEMPI first and then any additional services. I do not mean this disrespectfully in any way and I am sure that is not how the Minister of State will take it, but every time there is an intervention from a Minister or Minister of State we get further away from any possibility of there being...

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: Does the figure include patients who were sent abroad or is it an increase in operations carried out in the State?

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: To be very clear, because we fall out sometimes and perhaps that is because the questions are not clear, I want details on when the plan will be published and information on how, precisely, the staffing arrangements will be organised for the increase in the number of days the theatre is open. The plan is to increase it from three to five. I would also like information on the timelines by...

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: These are the kinds of things the Minister of State should know. If the Minister for Health says he is confident that a certain number of beds are to be opened or that a certain sum of money is to be put aside and the Minister of State then comes in and says he does not know what it will be spent on, it does not inspire a massive amount of confidence. It certainly does not do so in me. It...

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I have a question about the phone number because it is very interesting. The idea is that a person will ring in and will just be directed to the right service. I could probably say something smart about the waiting list but I am not going to. Will that person be qualified or will he or she be more of a telephonist? If somebody rings up and says he or she anxiety, which I think was the...

Select Committee on Health: Estimates for Public Services 2018
Vote 38 - Health (Revised) (28 Mar 2018)

Services for People with Disabilities: Motion [Private Members] (27 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I was delighted to speak some weeks ago on the Government motion to ratify the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. While the ratification of this convention is to be celebrated, there are a significant number of issues to be overcome in order that equality and inclusion for people with disabilities can be delivered. I commend my colleague, an Teachta Ó...

Government Response to Salisbury Attack: Statements (27 Mar 2018)

Louise O'Reilly: I join with others in stating very clearly that the use of chemical weapons cannot and should not ever be tolerated. A number of issues surrounding the expulsion of a Russian diplomat by the Government need to be highlighted. Last week we saw the Taoiseach once again announce a shift in Government policy to the media before he came in here to make the same announcement to the Oireachtas....
