Mairead Farrell: Okay. It is just clearly an issue of concern when it is under 40% of what is actually being assessed and then there is also the amount that is not assessed. I will bring in the next speaker.

Mairead Farrell: I understand that and I read that. It is more than a limitation. It is quite concerning when significantly less than half can be looked at. However, I will bring in the next speaker, an Teachta Kelly.

Alan Kelly: I thank the Cathaoirleach and wish her the best of luck. She will be a fantastic Chair. I welcome everyone, particularly those who have been appointed in the last period of time. Best of luck to them. We need them all to be successful so I hope that they will be. I welcome those who have been around for a while as well. In fairness to the CEO, one thing about Mr. Gloster is that his...

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: 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...

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...
