- Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)
Michael Collins: We find ourselves in an unbelievable situation. Four or five years ago there was a vote of no confidence in the then Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, and it led to a general election. That vote was called on the basis of the health service and health scandals. Nothing has got any better since then. People are waiting three to five years for cataract treatment, while others are waiting...

- Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)
Paul Murphy: The Minister for Health has the neck to come in here and claim that the pay and numbers strategy is not a recruitment moratorium when the health unions are telling us that is precisely what it is. To be clear, it does not matter to health workers or to patient safety whether or not it is officially called a recruitment moratorium. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a...
- Public Health Service Staffing: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (23 Oct 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: I thank Deputy Duncan Smith and his colleagues for this important motion.
