Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Early Childhood Care and Education (24 Oct 2024)

Roderic O'Gorman: I thank the Deputy. It was published on Tuesday. We are delighted to publish it. I am delighted to have published it because I asked for this to be undertaken. There is a lot happening in the early years section in my Department. We had a busy summer negotiating another really successful budget. We have been bringing out extra support for AIMS, rolling out equal start and the new DEIS...

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

Catherine Murphy: I wish to pick up on the point my colleague Deputy Verona Murphy made on the CDNTs. This comes up repeatedly. I hear from people who had services when they were being looked after by Enable Ireland but who have no services now because they were switched to a CDNT. The vacancy rate in Kildare south is 16.7%. In Kildare north, it is 35.2%. In mid-Kildare it is 15.3%. Some 250,000 people...

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

Catherine Murphy: There is just not a service for most people. It is the one area that is very out of control, from what I am hearing. It is repeatedly raised in the most tragic situations. We are talking about emergency situations, where you go with an emergency and are told to come back in 12 months. It is outrageous. I just wanted to highlight that as the kind of thing that really needs attention. ...

Catherine Murphy: We are talking about 8% turnover and possibly 6%.

Catherine Murphy: So the figure for the shortfall in staff is about 14%.

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

Catherine Murphy: I know that, but it is a recurring 8%. It is not the same people, but it is a recurring 8%.

Catherine Murphy: Is Mr. Gloster telling me that there are different numbers January, March and July? Is it generally 8% for the year?

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

Catherine Murphy: Mr. Gloster is talking about that being 8% over a year.

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

Catherine Murphy: In the short time I have left, I will focus on one matter. We make recommendations to the HSE when we compile a report. One of those recommendations was that the reports from internal audits be published on the executive's website. Will the HSE be doing that? Does it see the internal audits and the reports from audits relating to the more than 60% of other publicly funded health agencies?

James O'Connor: I wish the Cathaoirleach well in her new role. I mark the fact she is the first female to serve in her position. I also thank Deputy Catherine Murphy for her work recently and throughout the term as Leas-Chathaoirleach. Returning to the capital development side of things, I wish to ask another question. In the context of land relinquished during 2023 – this is a specific question...

James O'Connor: It is interesting Mr. Gloster says that because I have one situation I wish to raise with him. I was trying to get a conversation without prejudice between a local GAA club and a facility where the HSE owned the ground but there was that instance where the field was used for GAA purposes. I was wondering about the mechanisms around that.

James O'Connor: Mr. Gloster might just check that out with St. Raphael’s because I have requested that previously but I just want to get the ball rolling.

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

James O'Connor: Yes. It is a huge site. There are vast lands with it. I refer to the feasibility study on the ambulance training unit going into the old building in St. Raphael's. It is a beautiful building. It is almost like one of the old buildings you see in Trinity College but it has been left derelict and vacant for some time. It is sealed and contained. It is not as run down as some other...

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

James O'Connor: My ultimate message is that the HSE should please drive on with that. For the first time in 30 years, there is something happening in Youghal because of the State action. The town had lost 4,000 jobs in manufacturing and was utterly abandoned for years.

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

James O'Connor: That is good to hear. The primary care centre is moving along. I also ask about the chronic pain management suites the HSE is working on. Dr. Henry might know a little more about this but it is looking at locating some of them in primary care facilities around the country. I have another question about small injury units and to see what is involved in locating those within the new primary...

James O'Connor: Both.

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

James O'Connor: Correct, in primary care settings. I think they have done this in Dungarvan, County Waterford, with success. I want to see if it will be possible-----
