2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (Resumed) (17 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: Within some of the documentation that members received this week there was quite a bit of discussion about delays, the shortage of staff and delays in different parts of the country. Are the witnesses satisfied that there is not a problem with the screening programme with regard to its capacity? It is important that we know this at this stage. These will be historical cases if court action...

2016 Financial Statements of the HSE (Resumed) (16 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: Thank you very much for coming in and sharing your stories with us. We have had the HSE in at this committee routinely on various issues. Very often, it is about something much more academic and we are trying to understand something and humanise it. Unfortunately, we tend to get change in this country by people putting themselves forward, putting themselves out there in a way that really...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Business of Joint Committee (Resumed) (16 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: I am asking for this to be included in our work programme. When we are discussing the governance of the major sports it would be helpful to explore this area and how this issue could be subsumed at an early stage into standard governance. For example, we have seen the role that has been played with regard to matters such as safeguarding youngsters. It is important that this area is taken...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Traffic Congestion in the Greater Dublin Area and Related Matters: Discussion (16 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: I am pleased we are meeting on this issue, which I sought to have included in our work programme. In doing so, what I had in mind was that we consider medium and longer term scenarios because it is important that we are proactive rather than reactive in terms of what can happen. Deputy Eamon Ryan and I first met on the consultative panel of the Dublin Transportation Initiative in the...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Traffic Congestion in the Greater Dublin Area and Related Matters: Discussion (16 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: I wish to make a point I raised some months ago when we were discussing College Green. I said at the time that we need to look at something that is less reactive and more proactive. I keep quoting the same statistics regarding where the growth has happened. I welcome the fact it was said we might come back in a number of weeks and look at it in a different way. My thinking on this meeting...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Traffic Congestion in the Greater Dublin Area and Related Matters: Discussion (16 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: This goes to the heart of the problem. When we talk about having a strategic approach, it has to be about a connection between land use and transportation planning. One has to model that. One has to be deliberate about it or else one keeps producing sprawl.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Traffic Congestion in the Greater Dublin Area and Related Matters: Discussion (16 May 2018)

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Traffic Congestion in the Greater Dublin Area and Related Matters: Discussion (16 May 2018)

Catherine Murphy: Surely there must be some evaluation of the way public transport is impeded in achieving the times it would like to achieve. Surely there are figures on productivity among the business community and the hours spent in traffic as opposed to working productively. Surely there is a mechanism for calculating those statistics when doing a cost-benefit analysis to make an investment in public...
