Pat Buckley: This is going on a long time. It was 1992 or something when this started. I will take up to 2011, I think. The document here has 41 pages. I see the work that has gone into this. The way this family has been treated is diabolical. I will read out some quotes because it is interesting that they are still fighting in 2024. I am reading from p.11: When we met the top two officials from...

Martin Browne: Someone needs to answer for the fact that this unsafe vessel was registered as safe in the first place when it clearly was not. This family have been let down apparently every step of the way by the system because we have another situation here in which the buck seems to be passed from one to another all over Europe. As the Deputy stated, we know there are boats out there that are of the...

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Petitions Received (24 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: It is crazy that everybody recognises the problems that are out there and the danger of involved but that no one seems to be prepared to move it on. As the Deputy stated at the outset, this whole family has been destroyed because of the lack of movement from anybody in this case. Is it agreed that we contact the OPLA? Agreed.

It states: On February 12, 2024, our daughter Bena-Blu was born at just 22 weeks and weighing only 420 grams. Despite the fact that she was alive and kicking, we were told that no life-saving measures would be taken because she...

Pat Buckley: I agree with the petition. It is heart-wrenching. Let us see what action will come back from it. It is about progressing stuff for people. It is a very sad situation.

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Petitions Received (24 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: It is, and we send our thoughts to the petitioner. She is taking particular issue with the HSE's reference to best practice when, as she says, the weight of the baby was estimated as higher than was the case following birth. Also, the petitioner has an issue with what more could have been done in an accident and emergency environment. It is obviously distressing that at 22 weeks' gestation...

Committee on Public Petitions: Decisions on Petitions Received (24 Oct 2024)

Martin Browne: It is harrowing that the weight and those six days, as the petitioner says, seem to have been contributing factors. Is it agreed to do as proposed? Agreed.
