- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (22 Oct 2024)
Simon Harris: I thank Deputy Cairns. I definitely agree with the Deputy on one point, which is that politics and the next election certainly cannot be about who comes up with the biggest figure in terms of the number of homes they are going to deliver because the public will rightly see through that. People will be much more interested in the how. That is absolutely right. Deputy Cairns said...

Simon Harris: I thank Deputy McDonald for raising this important issue. I join her in acknowledging what she rightly describes as the very important role student nurses play in our health system, in our hospitals and in our community during their training. She is quite right to make that point. Of course, in their fourth and final year, student nurses are paid, but the Deputy is talking specifically...

Mary Lou McDonald: I thank the Taoiseach. He will remember during Covid there was a huge discussion around student midwives and nurses and the work that was being done. It was said at that point that the work was not being adequately recognised and compensated. I just think it is really problematic that we are back in a space where young students of nursing and midwifery feel again that they are not being...

Mary Lou McDonald: Young people and students working within the healthcare system are going to watch very carefully to see what we have to say and whether we are prepared to put our money where our mouths are. On this side of the House we certainly are. I will send on details of the individual case to the Minister. I hope the Taoiseach takes the point, which is made in good faith, that it is in all of our...

- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (22 Oct 2024)
Mary Lou McDonald: I would first like to address information which I placed on the Dáil record last week relating to an incident where a Sinn Féin representative sent inappropriate text messages to a young person. It was then my understanding that the young person was 17 years of age because of the information provided on his application form when he applied to join Ógra Shinn Féin. That...

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: Thank you, Deputy.
- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (22 Oct 2024)
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. However, the new subsistence allowance for first-to-third-year student nurses does not go...

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Mairead Farrell: No matter what happened with the bike shelter costing €336,000 and so on, is it correct that the OPW would still at this point have had to tender another framework? I just want to understand it.
