Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Health Services for Persons with Lung Fibrosis: Discussion (24 Apr 2024)

Seán Crowe: I imagine that is a big challenge for people who are coming from Kerry to Dublin. They have to work out how much they will use and there might be delays and they might have to wait. There must be easier solutions for it. This week is transplant week. Mr. Hurley made a point about lung transplants and it was said that 30 to 40 are done per year. If he was working, he would not be able...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: South Kerry Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: HSE (2 Mar 2022)

Seán Crowe: ...areas of high deprivation for many of these CAMHS teams. The big question that people at home are asking is whether we can be assured that the failures and challenges that happened in the south Kerry area will pop up in other places. That is one of the questions people will be asking. Will we have similar problems, such as lack of full teams in some cases, or teams that are broken and...

Violence against Women: Statements (Resumed) (25 Jan 2022)

Seán Crowe: ...Murphy has appalled us all. It has also shone a light on what women in this country have had to live with forever. Last night I watched a programme on television that highlighted the case of the Kerry babies. Joanne Hayes is another woman whose life was destroyed by a sustained campaign of institutional violence against her that lasted almost 40 years. The State apologies while trying...

Famine Memorial Day Bill 2016: Second Stage (3 May 2018)

Seán Crowe: ...catastrophe. Some would describe it as a genocide. We all agree that it needs to be remembered and those who died need to be commemorated. There is much that the Minister, in terms of her job, can do. I was in Kerry recently, where I was shocked to come across a so-called Famine bowl, in which the millet was made into gruel for people who were starving, being used for builder's rubble....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade: Situation in Ukraine: Russian Federation Ambassador (12 Mar 2014)

Seán Crowe: ...favour of joining the Russian Federation? If that happens it will be viewed by many as a further escalation, but that depends on Russia's response. Yesterday the US Secretary of State, Mr. John Kerry, rejected an offer to talk to the Russian President until, as he said, Russia engages with US proposals on the Ukraine crisis. I think that view is counterproductive. I urge all sides to...

Pre-European Council Meeting: Statements (12 Mar 2014)

Seán Crowe: ...groups need time to formulate campaigns to support or oppose referendum questions. Ten days is far too little time and does not follow democratic best practice. Yesterday the US Secretary of State, John Kerry, rejected an offer of talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, until such time as Russia engages with US proposals on Ukraine's crisis. I believe this is counterproductive...

European Council in Brussels: Statements (2 Jul 2013)

Seán Crowe: ...week there was no agreement to publicly condemn Israel's continued settlement construction. According to media reports, Baroness Catherine Ashton pushed strongly against that, wanting to give the US Secretary of State, John Kerry, time to pursue his latest initiative. That is extremely disappointing. Regardless of whether there are negotiations, these illegal colonial settlements should...

Dormant Accounts Fund. (9 Nov 2006)

Seán Crowe: ...only registered in 2005 and it did not wish to operate out of somebody's house. It is one of those groups that has fallen through the gaps. The group has no register, so if somebody rings in from Kerry, the group cannot refer the person to any service in that county. This group is a first for Ireland and there is no training provided, so it must buy in services from abroad. I am aware...

Seán Crowe: ...and they may use a different alphabet, for example. We should not return to the Ellis Island scenario when the official at the desk decided how one's name should be spelt. The father of John Kerry, who is campaigning to be the Democratic candidate in the US presidential election, is reputed to have picked his surname off a map. People should have the option of registering their names in...
