Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Frank Feighan: I thank Mr. Dempsey for the presentation. It was very interesting and informative. I have three questions to ask. First, what proportion of public health clinics and hospitals meet national accessibility standards, including accessible buildings and environment and medical and health equipment? Second, as politicians we have had a lot of problems through the years with medical cards and...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Frank Feighan: With regard to people with disabilities, there seems to be a lot of picking and choosing.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Pauline Tully: Deputy Feighan referred to accessibility of buildings, and that is extremely important in centres, but accessibility of information is also very important. Do the Department of Health and the HSE incorporate easy-to-read versions on their websites and hard copies of literature? Do they provide ISL to those who require it? Do they provide information through braille? People who are blind...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Dessie Ellis: The issue I came across was of a young lad with Down's syndrome who could not get a tooth removed and had to search everywhere. Doctors were not signed up to this or helping out and I found it to be really disturbing that he went two, three or four days or whatever it was in pain and without being treated. It is one of the things I have encountered.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Dessie Ellis: What is the law relating to someone who refuses to allow their children to be vaccinated, if the child has a disability or otherwise, as for whatever reason they have an objection? Is there a law or do we just have to go along with the person? What is the situation?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Dessie Ellis: I know there is no law but I am curious as to whether there is any sort of mechanism that compels people to do it in some way.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Disability Matters: Health and Well-being for Persons with Disabilities: Discussion (23 Oct 2024)

Dessie Ellis: I thank Mr. Dempsey and everyone for their input. Before I go to the questions I have, I just want to say that in CHO 9, we have many problems very similar to what has been said about school places and people getting diagnosed. We have young kids on the waiting list for long periods. That is an ongoing thing. A lot of work has been done but there is a serious problem there. It appears...

Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2024: From the Seanad (23 Oct 2024)

Eoin Ó Broin: Sinn Féin is not opposing the amendment. However, I must say that a number of the justifications used by the Minister of State in describing the amendment are not factually correct. I would like to give him the opportunity to clarify some of the aspects behind this very specific amendment given that it is a very significant amount of money. The LDA does not have access to over...
