- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Micheál Martin: I am not saying the Deputy has but, generally, people did in the beginning. People actually did. I was questioned in the Dáil as if it was a fact.
- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Gary Gannon: As you should be.

- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: 5. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence the recruitment target for the Defence Forces; and the number who were inducted and the number who left the Defence Forces in each year from 2020 to 2024. [42033/24]
- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: This question is to adjudicate the performance of the Government in respect of the Defence Forces. Sometimes the Tánaiste says there is unfair criticism. It would be important to set out for the Dáil, in each year of this Government from 2020, the target recruitment for the Defence Forces and, in each year, how many were actually inducted and how many left, in other words, the net...
- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Micheál Martin: The military authorities have advised me that as of 31 August 2024, the latest date for which such information is available, the strength of the Permanent Defence Force stood at 7,426. A table containing the requested induction and discharges figures for each year from 2020 to 2024 will be provided to the Deputy. I have acknowledged in the past the recruitment and retention challenges in...
- Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions: Defence Forces (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: It is hard to ask a supplementary question when I do not have the substantive response to the question I asked. I take the Tánaiste's commitment to provide the precise figures. Here is what we do know from the Tánaiste's response. There are currently fewer than 7,500 members of our Defence Forces, 2,000 below the establishment figure and a whopping 4,000 below the two-figure...
- Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed) (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Shanahan: I thank the witnesses for attending. It is important to go back - the Cathaoirleach has signalled that this issue will probably be revisited - to try to understand what is the blockage to nurse prescribing. It happens in other areas of medicine, especially with the advanced clinical nurse practitioners. It is an obvious efficiency outcome and as the witnesses said, doctors may not be...
- Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed) (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Shanahan: Would any other speaker like to take that on as well?
- Committee on Drugs Use: A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed) (17 Oct 2024)
Matt Shanahan: I want to ask both witnesses about monitoring. Dr. Kelly referenced a high level document he was not allowed to contribute to because the HSE was the lead agency evaluating all of this. What awareness do the witnesses have of the monitoring of their efficiency metrics in the system in order to understand where they are going in getting patients through the system, the waiting times and the...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Catherine Murphy: I welcome everybody here today. I remind those in attendance to ensure mobile phones are on silent mode or switched off. Before we start I wish to explain some limitations to parliamentary privilege and the practice of the Houses as regards references that may be made to other persons in evidence. The evidence of witnesses physically present or who give evidence within the parliamentary...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Catherine Murphy: I thank Ms Drinan for her statement. As set out in the letter of invitation, Ms Delaney has five minutes to make her opening statement.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
John Brady: I welcome the witnesses and wish them a happy anniversary yesterday - ten years. I congratulate them on that. How many staff are employed with the Charities Regulator?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
John Brady: In June, there were media reports of a funding shortfall. Is that accurate? I refer to funding shortfalls and budgetary constraints. The funding was to ensure the work the Charities Regulator needs to do was carried out.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
John Brady: The funding that was requested was not forthcoming for the year. It was suggested a draft letter was to be circulated. I think this is from within the minutes of the board of the Charities Regulator. Could Ms Delaney outline some of the services that were impacted by that funding shortfall?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
John Brady: There is currently a staff complement of 47 and two vacancies. What is the target? What is the need with regard to the additional work Ms Delaney outlined?
