- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Issues relating to University Hospital Limerick: Discussion (10 Oct 2024)
Cathal Crowe: That is a positive development. I will follow the lines of Deputy Cullinane's questioning, and I will be careful. He has asked most of the questions.

We cannot prejudice the...

I have long been speaking about Ennis General Hospital and elective surgeries being suspended there for ten weeks. Surgery took place on perhaps four days in ten weeks. The theatre nurses, who are highly skilled, were redeployed to other functions in general medical wards. This is not personal, but the...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Issues relating to University Hospital Limerick: Discussion (10 Oct 2024)
Michael Lowry: First, I welcome the Minister and his delegation to the committee. As a Member of the Oireachtas representing the people of north Tipperary, I am very familiar with the problems and failures in the delivery of healthcare in the mid-west region. I was one of those representatives who continually went to the meetings, and after every meeting I left in frustration and anger because we were...
