Alan Kelly: I agree.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Kelly: Especially Shannondoc at weekends.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Kelly: I apologise. I am just conscious of time. Mr. Gloster want to get in.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Kelly: Mr. Gloster will see my questions coming from a mile away because I have asked them twice this week. When will the 96-bed block be opened? Through accident or misspeaking, as he said yesterday, I take Mr. Gloster at his word. I see it. I have been inside in UHL for more than a month. I have actually seen floors go up since I was in there. They are flying it and I accept that. What date...

Alan Kelly: Third, when will the MAUs move to providing a 24-hour service? Staffing is a huge issue but I am a huge supporter of public MAUs being opened across the network to help alleviate any issues. I am stuck for time and I have one more question so please answer my questions.

- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Alan Kelly: What about the MAUs?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Kelly: I agree. There will be public doctors and public nurses eventually. I know a private company has been brought in at the moment. The ambition is, in the near future, to be staffed fully by the HSE.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Kelly: Yes.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Alan Kelly: I ask that because, as Mr. Gloster will know, it is contract staff rather than full-time staff. An issue jumped out at me from the report. How can one consultant be paid 24 hours pay for one hour's work? I know from looking at Mr. Gloster that he is as shocked as I am about this. A consultant was paid 24 hours pay and is paid nearly €1 million a year. The example being given is...

Alan Kelly: Jesus. I thank Mr. Gloster.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh maith agat, an Teachta Kelly. We have heard two personal experiences today and they have been very powerful. We wish the Deputy's father a very speedy recovery. It is very difficult for people watching and listening to hear that, despite their own personal experiences and difficulties within the healthcare system and accessing healthcare, that one consultant would be paid such an...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh maith agat. I am conscious of time. I will allow everyone come back in for five minutes. I will take an Teachta Carthy. Then we will take our break and take a second round.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh maith ag an Teachta. We will now take a short break and the meeting is suspended for ten minutes.

Mairead Farrell: Beidh mise mar an chéad cainteoir eile. One issue that has annoyed me for some time, even previously in my role as a city councillor on Galway City Council, is that of agency spend. We have seen that it has gone from a spend of €350 million to €650 million in a four to five year period. If we look at that trend and the figures that we had up until August, it seems that...
