Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank the witnesses for coming to this meeting and for their opening statements. It has been a very worthwhile discussion so far and has touched on various topics impacting our constituents North and South. It may not have been what the members of the committee were expecting to hear, as we are solely focused on unification and what that might look like. I often get asked how we can make...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Winter Preparedness in the Hospital System: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank the committee for allowing me time to address the witnesses. I welcome the witnesses and thank them for their opening statements and for taking our questions. From what has been said so far about the embargo and the information that has been outlined here this morning, as has been mentioned, it does seem quite arbitrary and ambiguous. I am grateful for the further clarification from...

Violet-Anne Wynne: Okay. Could Mr. Gloster reply in respect of the job offers?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Winter Preparedness in the Hospital System: Discussion (22 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank Mr. Gloster for that. It makes a lot more sense now. I appreciate that. A lot of pieces of information that Mr. Gloster provided to other members is quite positive. It is important to mention that hospital settings are a high pressured environment, especially UHL, without having a model 3 hospital in the region as well to support it. The work is tense, extreme and high...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank the Tánaiste. The mention of time and there being too much of it almost feels as if there is a sentiment to the effect that maybe time is being wasted. That is obviously not the Tánaiste's intention, but for victims to hear we do not want too much time to go into such an inquiry is not really bringing about their priorities. It has felt to them that their concerns are not...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: 49. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence if he accepts that the equating of “trips, slips, and falls” with rape and abuse was an unfortunate error in his letter to victims of the Defence Forces who have been subjected to such horrendous crimes; if he will recall and reissue the letter; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [50910/23]

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: Does the Tánaiste accept that his equating of "trips, slips and falls" with rape and abuse was an unfortunate error in his letter to members of the Defence Forces who have been subjected to such horrendous crimes? Will he recall and reissue the letter and make a statement on the matter?

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I thank the Tánaiste and appreciate the information he provided in his response. It has been said previously in the Chamber that the Women of Honour are reasonable people. I have met representatives of the group and they felt the Tánaiste's choice of words was wrong. He mentioned he felt their reaction was unfair, but I respectfully request he reflect on his use of language in...

Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Tribunals of Inquiry (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I think all of us in this House agree that we need to get this right. In my engagements with the Women of Honour, they have expressed to me that on many occasions they have requested that the term "incidents of abuse" be included. Why is that so important to them? It is the only way to allow for soldiers who have never used complaints systems to come forward. It is vitally important. I...

Health Service Recruitment Freeze: Motion [Private Members] (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I have submitted around 1,200 written questions in the past 12 months. The vast majority of those were for the Department of Health, the vast majority of which were replied to citing a recruitment and retention crisis. The Government has blamed a recruitment and retention crisis for every one of the failings in health in particular and at the same time has refused to take any responsibility...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (21 Nov 2023)

Violet-Anne Wynne: I rise in utter frustration. I have to raise the fact that as an elected public representative, I am experiencing too many serious issues with the leadership of Clare County Council, namely, the leadership of the social directorate with responsibility for housing. For a number of months, I have requested a meeting to discuss various issues in respect of housing or lack thereof. It has not...
