Mary Lou McDonald: Our student nurses and midwives are incredible. They do invaluable nursing work while on placement on wards and, in fact, they keep our hospitals going. They do a minimum of 28 hours a week and they work far beyond their training duties. The McHugh review of 2022 addressed pay for intern nurses.

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Catherine Murphy: If I wanted to buy one of these modular homes, and I am actually quite familiar with them because Backweston is very near to where I live and the biggest development is there.

- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Catherine Murphy: The cost is €145,000. Mr. Conlon reckons the enabling works cost €55,000 or something like that.

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Catherine Murphy: Deputy Kelly’s time is up. I will briefly follow on from that. I remember the OPW being before this committee previously talking about these modular homes before they started. We were told they could be picked up and lifted somewhere else. As has been pointed out, there is a huge amount of money that cannot be picked up and moved elsewhere, such as money spent on site works,...

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Catherine Murphy: It makes no sense to me either. Do they have planning permission for anything other than their current use? Do they require planning permission if they are being used for something else?
