Neasa Hourigan: When that happens, in Mr. Perth's experience, what is the language that is used? Is it said the people need to go and get treatment for bipolar first?

Neasa Hourigan: It is that dual diagnosis thing that they just will not do it.
- Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)
Neasa Hourigan: Am I right in thinking that if people go in somewhere with bipolar or whatever it might be to ask for treatment, they will often be told they need to get clean first?

- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Catherine Murphy: I welcome all the witnesses. Mr. Gloster, in his opening statement, mentioned the number of staff in August 2024 and said that the "growth is 23.3% since December 2019". Has the WRC change from a 39-hour week to a 37.5-hour week been part of the calibration?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: On the 2,000 posts that were suppressed in advance of the embargo being lifted, Mr. Gloster gave us the figure for August 2024. Will he please give us the figure for December 2023?

Catherine Murphy: I, too, picked up on the overtime payment and wonder how it happened. During a weekend night call-out in 2023, the employee was paid a rate of six hours' pay per patient for each of the four patients treated in a single period of 60 minutes. That same point was made by Deputy Kelly. It cost in excess of €2,800 for the call, which is an extraordinary amount. I can see the HSE's...

Catherine Murphy: This situation happens when the consultant is called in to a hospital, I presume, to see patients and there is nobody else to cover that. This person would have come in and seen four patients, and that is essentially how it happened.

Catherine Murphy: The second item I want to deal with - I hope I will be able to come back in on a few other matters later - relates to the settlement of the employment case. This cropped up in the C and AG's report. It jumped out to us. I understand that there is a mediated situation and that this constrains what can be said. The settlement comprised €1.37 million for a loss of potential private...

Catherine Murphy: -----and it indicates that the power was all on one side here. I asked a question some time ago about the contractor that is building the national children's hospital and contracts over the past ten years for the same entity. There were seven of them, totalling €93 million, in different locations. What was the profile for looking at how they had worked out and whether they were on...
