Malcolm Noonan: I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. I had a wonderful visit to Howth portal tomb recently. Also known as Aideen’s Grave, it dates from the Neolithic period and is a recorded monument situated in the Howth demesne townland. Within a peninsula of great historical, archaeological and amenity importance, it is an important landmark. As a recorded monument, Aideen’s Grave...

Éamon Ó Cuív: We come to Clifden near the end. It gets four lines. I ask the Minister of State to go back and inquire of the HSE, through the Department, whether it is intended to develop Clifden District Hospital as a full primary care centre. I want a full primary care centre plus things like X-ray facilities and so on because of the distance from Galway and because the hospital is there already and...

Michael Ring: I am disappointed with the response from the Minister of State and I will tell him why. This primary care centre was to be completed in 2020. Works have been at a standstill since 2021. We are now into 2024. I want there to be the same urgency with this work as there was for the national children's hospital in Dublin. In that case, the Government stepped in and had to renegotiate with...

Neale Richmond: .... I appreciate Deputy Nash's passion, which is shared by my colleague, Deputy Fergus O'Dowd, whom I know Deputy Nash has worked very well with for many years. He will soon be leaving this House and I know he will be missed by many. As Deputy Nash is aware, the living city initiative is a modest and targeted tax measure, which is aimed at areas with significant architectural heritage in...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Waiting Lists (30 Apr 2024) See 3 other results from this debate

Christopher O'Sullivan: I acknowledge the increased expenditure of €19 million, the 200 additional healthcare professionals and the reductions in waiting lists of 5% and 13%, but there is a statistic that is concerning, namely that although there were 509 procedures in 2022, there were fewer in 2023. Therefore, something has gone awry. I appreciate that the Minister is not here and that the Minister of...

Claire Kerrane: This is my tenth time to raise Ballaghaderreen and the need for additional practical resources. It has received refugees and international protection persons for seven years now and has nothing to show for it. We have to battle for an extension for the local school.

Bríd Smith: I argue the national childcare scheme is not fit for purpose. It does not fit the demand and it does not fit the need we have in this country. Parents will say to us it is the most convoluted, confusing and unfair system. I will give one instance, and I am picking up on a thing that comes to my attention regularly. Parents are penalised for wanting to spend more time with their children,...
