- Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (23 Oct 2024)
Mick Barry: Is the Taoiseach aware that there are now more than 30 vacant posts at Mallow Hospital? Is he aware that surgeries had to be cancelled at that hospital a few weeks back? Is he aware that the staff shortages that caused this were only sorted out by moving staff from CUH to plug the gap? Does he think this is any way for a hospital to be run? I want to support both the INMO and Fórsa,...

Simon Harris: We all want a better health service for all, and that is what we are working for on a daily basis. That is why we provided the largest ever health budget, why we have the largest number of people ever working in the public service and why we provided funding for thousands more nurses, doctors and healthcare professionals in the HSE budget for 2025. In relation to the issue of Mallow...

Peadar Tóibín: The issue of Government waste is creating great frustration and fury among the general public, from the children's hospital to the Gucci bike shed.

Peadar Tóibín: This is the issue of Government waste, which is a massive topic, I understand. Those ventilators are still being stored. What is going to happen to those ventilators that cost €100,000, that do not work and that are still being stored? Will the Government use them somewhere as a national monument to Government waste, to be able to celebrate what the Government has done?

The reality of the situation is that so much effort was made by so many good people working in the Department of Health to save lives. That is what they did, and I am proud of them. They did not waste during Covid. They worked really hard during Covid, around the clock, while people like you just threw barbed comments from the sidelines.

His tax number was used when he was not trading in this country. This deals with NAMA. We all know about Project Eagle.
