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

Catherine Murphy: -----and it indicates that the power was all on one side here. I asked a question some time ago about the contractor that is building the national children's hospital and contracts over the past ten years for the same entity. There were seven of them, totalling €93 million, in different locations. What was the profile for looking at how they had worked out and whether they were on...

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

Catherine Murphy: That is general, however.

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

Catherine Murphy: Will Mr. Gloster please do that and revert to us?

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

Catherine Murphy: I will probably not be here for the response but the committee will receive it.

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. ...

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

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

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

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%.

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

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?

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: This is to do with the train traffic management system. Originally, the estimate was for €148 million. The range could now be somewhere between €175 million and €205 million, with the project estimated to come in at approximately €188 million, which is obviously a substantial difference. I do not doubt that the system is needed, but can we write to the NTA to...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: Yes.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: We are being told in this correspondence that the current status of the development is commercially sensitive and the focus of the project is being reviewed. Essentially, the project has stopped. We should write to the Irish Strategic Investment Fund to get a status update. This is a non-answer. I am not satisfied with a non-answer. We need a status update. Approximately €24...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: We have not had it before the committee since its accounts were published.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: These are the oldest accounts that are outstanding.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: This is in terms of the largest entities. This is all the more reason. I presume the number of claims in dispute has had a bearing on the hold up.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (24 Oct 2024)

Catherine Murphy: This is absolutely the reason this committee exists. It is the one that is most outstanding. We may well have delayed having it before the committee so that we would have the 2022 accounts.
