- Cancer Services: Motion (20 May 2008)
James Reilly: Is something wrong with the HSE given that it cannot find a partner abroad which does not have a record of fraud? Quest, the cervical cancer screening company, has a margin of error of 15%, whereas our laboratories have a margin of 5%. A recent comparative study of 14,500 slides conducted by St. Luke's hospital shows that, even accounting for urgent cases, Quest's laboratory has an error...
- Cancer Services: Motion (20 May 2008)
James Reilly: That is hardly a hospital with sufficient capacity to take on a regional centre. The â¬5 million which is to be spent on the eight centres divides into â¬625,000 per unit, which is not the sort of money needed to deliver the excellence Galway hopes to provide. These issues arise before I even begin to discuss the parking difficulties experienced around University Hospital, Galway. Many...
- Special Educational Needs: Motion (12 Feb 2008)
James Reilly: ...that is in today's money. I do not know how many of those cases are in psychiatric institutions. I do not have any idea how much money it would cost but it would be a damn sight more than the â¬5 million to â¬6 million that it is reckoned is required to support the further 12 ABA schools it is proposed to establish. If the Minister has figures to the contrary perhaps she will share...
- Health Services: Motion (5 Feb 2008)
James Reilly: Section 15.11 of Planning for the Future, published in 1984, was to be Government policy. The specified funds were to be ring-fenced for psychiatric and mental health services, acknowledging the fact that these services represent the Cinderella of our health service and always have done. Under this Government, they remain so, and if it is left in power, this will always be the case. I hope...
- Transport 21: Statements (Resumed) (15 Nov 2007)
James Reilly: ...centre, where, just as happened with the HSE, it will become less transparent and even less accountable. I will start by quoting the Taoiseach, who said at the launch of Transport 21 in November 2005, "Our ambition and plan is clear and substantial â we will build a world-class transport system for the 21st century and we will do it on time and on budget". "On time and on budget" became...
- Cancer Services: Statements (Resumed) (7 Nov 2007)
James Reilly: In her speech, the Minister for Health and Children stated: "One person applied for the post, the doctor who had been a locum beforehand, was offered the position, and took it up on 1 November 2005." Is this the same locum about whose expertise the surgeon had concerns? The Minister might answer this later. I accept totally the Minister's statement that the same pictures taken by the...
- Markets in Financial Instruments and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2007: Second Stage (Resumed) (4 Oct 2007)
James Reilly: ...will the management leadership come from? How many public servants have lost their jobs because of incompetence or a refusal to do particular work? A case in point is PPARS, which cost â¬180 million at least â we think it cost that figure but we cannot get absolute clarity on the matter. That was the level of expenditure, yet it turned out to be a financial disaster. Was anybody...
- Roads Bill 2007 [Seanad]: Second Stage (28 Jun 2007)
James Reilly: ...be used and the lengths of journeys that must be undertaken but it is only now that we are providing for rest areas. Hopefully it will be a speedy process. The other issue is congestion on the M50. It is a nightmare for commuters; the "M50 car park" and the "mad cow roundabout" have entered common parlance. Fingal County Council, in its discussions with the NRA when the road was being...
