Gino Kenny: On the Government's investment of €1.433 billion, which is an enormous amount of money, thus far €1.325 billion has been expended. Correct me if I am wrong, but this leaves €100 million remaining.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Update on New National Children’s Hospital: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board (12 Jul 2023)
Gino Kenny: Okay. Moving to the issue of low productivity regarding BAM, it seems extraordinary that in the evolution of this hospital productivity has gone down rather than up. Does BAM have the will to finish this project? I refer to its commitment to this endeavour. I say this because there seems to be all sorts of sideshows going on here in respect of claims, counterclaims, etc. We would think,...

- An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (11 Jul 2023)
Gino Kenny: Many people in direct provision centres have leave to remain. Some of them have of late received letters from international protection accommodation services, IPAS, telling them to leave the centre for a different part of the country. Some residents, particularly those in Clondalkin Towers, have important jobs and are being educated locally. It is extremely unfair to ask them to leave...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying: Developing a Legal Framework for Assisted Dying: Discussion (11 Jul 2023)
Gino Kenny: I thank everyone for their statements this morning. In respect of what we have heard in the past five weeks, different countries have different rules around assisted dying. A small number of countries have an assisted dying framework. They are different to a certain degree as regards criteria and who can avail of assisted dying. However, generally where it has worked, it has worked for...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying: Developing a Legal Framework for Assisted Dying: Discussion (11 Jul 2023)
Gino Kenny: That legislation is thorough and progressive. It is revolutionary in some ways in relation to healthcare. Professor Madden touched on it. She put it eloquently when she spoke of people having control of their medical treatment. That gives clarity in that people could find themselves in a situation where they could refuse a medical intervention and so forth. That gives a sense of control....

Gino Kenny: I thank Professor Madden.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying: Developing a Legal Framework for Assisted Dying: Discussion (11 Jul 2023)
Gino Kenny: Dr. Jones's statement is quite extraordinary. It says that those countries that have introduced assisted dying undermine the very foundation of an egalitarian, civilised society. Is Dr. Jones saying that New Zealand and Spain and some states of the United States are uncivilised because they have introduced assisted dying?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying: Developing a Legal Framework for Assisted Dying: Discussion (11 Jul 2023)
Gino Kenny: I think Professor Jones's statement has crossed the Rubicon. It is obvious that he is diametrically opposed to assisted dying in any form and that is his prerogative. Regarding the unassisted suicide rates in the United States, where is his evidence for the statement that suicide rates have gone up in those states that have introduced assisted dying? As this is a serious allegation to...
