Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Issues relating to University Hospital Limerick: Discussion (10 Oct 2024)

Cathal Crowe: I have the shortest question. It relates to the medical assessment unit in Ennis running to midnight from next week onwards. I know there are plans to recruit nurses and consultants but I do not believe there are any plans to recruit clerical staff. That is what the unions have been told. To have all cogs moving fluidly, it is essential that happens. Will the Minister give us some...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Issues relating to University Hospital Limerick: Discussion (10 Oct 2024)

Seán Crowe: I thank the Minister and his staff very much for coming in. We have all found the information we have been given very interesting.

I also acknowledge the fact that during the consultation period the Minister of State did listen to the environmental groups and took into consideration the environmental assessment needs of these areas. My comments are probably more...

South Coast Designated Maritime Area Plan for Offshore Renewable Energy: Motion (10 Oct 2024)

Richard Boyd Barrett: I have very mixed feelings about this motion. I am not from the south-coast area so I lack the sort of specific knowledge or guidance that would allow me to make a properly informed decision as to what I think about this motion. We all know we need to develop renewable energy and that offshore renewable energy will be an important part of that. We should also know, however, that the...

South Coast Designated Maritime Area Plan for Offshore Renewable Energy: Motion (10 Oct 2024)

Brendan Howlin: I am very pleased to have an opportunity to make a short contribution on what I regard as a very important motion. It is part of a long process in which we in these Houses have been involved for some time. The Minister of State described it as a landmark proposal, and it is. Spatial planning for our marine environment is a relatively new concept. In the past, it was almost a free-for-all...
