Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Work Programme, Disability Services and Related Issues: Discussion with HIQA (12 Sep 2013)

Regina Doherty: I thank HIQA for its presentation this morning. The corporate plan is amazingly impressive and I wish the authority the best of luck with that. I seek answers to two questions and a comment on something Deputy Ó Caoláin said earlier. First, has HIQA issued the national standards that will apply to the residential care services? If so, will the witnesses describe them briefly to...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection: Down's Syndrome Education Equality: Discussion (11 Sep 2013)

Regina Doherty: It is a privilege to listen to Professor Buckley and I thank her for taking the time to meet us. We are not going to take "No" for an answer and I am delighted that she is supporting us. For the record, I ask her to explain how we will be excluding and damaging the 192 little children currently in primary schools who receive no resources from the educational system other than the teacher at...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Overview of Financial Sector: Discussion with Permanent TSB (5 Sep 2013)

Regina Doherty: Mr. Masding has said two things repeatedly, that Permanent TSB is a customer-centred bank and that in every case it will attempt to bring customers back to sustainable solutions. Of the voluntary assisted sales in both of the charts, the 800, 1,000 and 2,000, how many of them have not been offered any or all of the other options that are available in the long-term solutions category?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Overview of Financial Sector: Discussion with AIB (3 Sep 2013)

Regina Doherty: I thank our guests for attending. What Mr. Duffy just outlined in the context of the process AIB is undergoing sounded both wonderful and caring. It would, however, be remiss not to point out that it does not reflect what is happening in practice, particularly in light of the evidence presented to me by my constituents. The picture painted by those constituents is very different from that...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Overview of Financial Sector: Discussion with AIB (3 Sep 2013)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Quarterly Meeting with Department of Health and HSE: Discussion on Health Issues (25 Jul 2013)

Regina Doherty: On the issue of symphysiotomy, I thank the three Ministers. That has been a commitment not only of the three Ministers but of the Department, and I believe we are getting very close to finding a solution for the entire body of women who have remained trenchant in their search for some resolution. I have two questions. First, I ask the Minister for an update on the pending redundancy plans...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children: Child and Family Agency: Discussion with Chairman Designate (23 Jul 2013)

Regina Doherty: I thank the witnesses for coming in today. It is unusual that the purpose of today's meeting is to scrutinise this appointment because we absolutely lucked out when we got somebody of the quality of Ms Gibbons. She has such a concern and passion for children's welfare, along with Mr. Shannon and the entire team that is being compiled. I wish them every success and we would like to offer...
