Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: The Minister said yesterday that it is really hard to say whether those dates will be adhered to and whether they are feasible. Is it really hard?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: Would Mr. Tierney be confident? There have been serious concerns in terms of the contractor being at full capacity, or anywhere near half-capacity. Are we confident at this point that the commitments that have been given by the contractor are being met?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: It is really hard to say. I will move on to another area, which is mental health services. There is a serious crisis in mental health going back a number of years. We have seen that play out quite graphically in Linn Dara in Cherry Orchard, where a number of beds are still closed. The goes back over a number of years. As we know, the appointment of a national director for mental health...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: Would Mr. Gloster not agree that there are governance and accountability issues going back many years? The most striking example was probably the scandal in the services in Kerry. Does he not think that comes down to governance and accountability being the primary concern?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: I mentioned the closure of inpatient beds in Linn Dara in Cherry Orchard. That is a huge setback in the provision of CAMHS. When will that unit be reopened? What is the cause of the serious shortage of beds in the system? I think there are 54 beds overall in the service, which is a fraction of what is required. There is a major crisis there. When will that unit be reopened?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) John Brady: I refer back to a previous conversation with my colleague, when Mr. Walsh stated there is a roadmap to address some of the issues. Is there a similar roadmap to fill a critical service that is really at crisis point? At this stage I am not very optimistic, from his response, that we will see those beds open any time soon.

Some 2 million Palestinians are displaced, with thousands more missing, many buried under rubble. On average, Israel is killing 250 Palestinians per day in Gaza.

- Services for those Seeking Protection in Ireland: Statements (30 Jan 2024)
John Brady: Of course, each IP application must be assessed individually and the applicant may be judged on their particular circumstances. There were eight safe countries and now it is proposed that there be ten. Sinn Féin supports this. Other countries have more safe countries and different countries on their safe lists. That needs to be looked at. There are also systems that have partial...

John Brady: Before I begin, I want to draw attention to the absence of the Minister, Deputy O'Gorman, who has the responsibility for the Government's response to the co-ordination of immigration. His absence from the debate this afternoon sums up the Government's approach and handling of this entire situation. This debate is-----
- Services for those Seeking Protection in Ireland: Statements (30 Jan 2024)
John Brady: In fairness, the Minister and Minister of State are the ones who set the time for this debate, which is necessitated by a crisis brought about by the Government's complete mismanagement of the entire issue. The erosion of State services over many decades has pushed communities right to breaking point. It is a situation compounded by the failure of the Government to engage directly with...

Does he agree that it is a landmark decision on the issue of bogus self-employment?
