Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Gino Kenny: The committee produced a very comprehensive report based on hearings with witnesses who came before us. It was an interim report, although it may end up being the final report of the committee because there will be a general election in a number of weeks. The report is very progressive. One of the main areas it touches on is repealing the Misuse of Drugs Act. We cannot really discuss...

I thank everybody for coming in today and engaging with the committee, Mr. McCarthy, Mr. Collins, Ms Kelly, Mr. Ducque, Mr. Perth, Mr. Whiteley, Mr. D'Arcy and Mr. McCann. Their contributions have been very valuable. I also thank Senator Lynn Ruane. Senator Ruane's contribution over the lifetime of this committee has...

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

James O'Connor: I thank the witnesses for attending. There are many different areas that we could focus on. One of the things that really jumps out at me is the climb in expenditure from 2019 to 2023. Obviously, that is taking Covid into account but it seems the expenditure has not dropped back. To give context to my comments, we are looking at the figures coming from south of €20 billion, at...

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

James O'Connor: I refer to north Cork since this came up so much during the local elections. People cannot get in the door to see GPs in Mitchelstown and Fermoy. This is replicated in other parts of the country. I am not even going near the SouthDoc issue but it is extraordinarily worrying that even when people require a consultation with a doctor in an emergency or a call-out to a home that the service...

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

James O'Connor: We are 12 months on from Storm Babet, which took place in 2023. Enormous damage was done to Midleton. I was talking about this with the Office of Public Works earlier in the week. Midleton hospital experienced devastating flooding. The Owenacurra Centre there, which has been much-discussed over the current Dáil term, was damaged too. I want to get insight on where the HSE is with...

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

James O'Connor: I would like to get correspondence from the HSE on that this week, if possible, to get a live update on where we are. There is concern locally about the pace of development. It feeds back into a wider issue with any capital development in the HSE, which is the length of time it takes.
