Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: On the CDNTs, from what I can see - I can only judge by the cases I have come across, some of which have been the most extreme and harrowing of cases - the services might as well not exist. People do not even get a call back and people who have the most extreme cases are being told to come back in a year's time. Is it a postcode lottery with a particular issue in one CHO area or is it an...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: I am not precious about phone calls being returned if the service is being delivered, but I can tell Mr. Gloster about the most extreme cases I have come across. I will talk to him about them later. They are the most extreme cases. He would be horrified by some of these cases and there is not even any engagement with the families. I will take them up with him separately.

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: I might move on to the local drug and alcohol task force funding. In 2023, €3.5 million was allocated. What kinds of controls are on that in terms of it being spent on what it was announced for? Is it plugging gaps? Will there be a need for multi-annual funding or is it a one-off? I know how much has been allocated to each of the CHO areas but this is about the control on that...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: I am hearing from people on the ground, however, that the expectation is very different from the reality, and that is why I have concerns about the control.

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: On the national children's hospital, we had a response from Mr. Watt to questions we posed on 15 January in which he dealt with some of the issues involved. He provided a table relating to the drawdown prior to construction. We all know there have been problems with construction delays over the years and that there is now a higher level of inflation than previously. That was partly a...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: The point I am making is that if the project was completed on time we would be less exposed to that part of the contractual obligation.

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: What about the priority list? I remain unhappy with this because any contract is a two-way thing. This sends a terrible message to anyone engaging with the State in a contract - that they can push it as far as they can. The contractor could have had people on other sites rather than on this site so as to progress them in time because he was dealing with the private sector as opposed to the...

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: Could Mr. Watt provide the priority list of the capital projects? Some of them will be delayed at the very least as a consequence of the cost overrun. Could he provide us with the information on how that will impact on the list of priority projects?

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: But if there is a certain amount of money and then there are overruns – it is clear there will be a huge overrun in relation to this hospital – that has impacts on other projects. I am looking for the priority list to be provided and if we can see the likely impact on it.

Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Catherine Murphy: Could I also just make it clear that the question I would like a response to in regard to the local drugs and alcohol task forces is whether the funding provides them with an annual budget. How did the HSE determine how much each CHO area received? Dublin's north and the south inner city, which are part of CHO 7 and CHO 9, respectively, are fairly similar to other big CHO areas yet we are...
