- Select Committee on Education and Skills: Estimates for Public Services 2024
Vote 45 - Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science (Supplementary) (24 Oct 2024) Jim O'Callaghan: I thank the Minister of State. I do not think there will be too many questions. One thing that Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan and I were pleased to see was that €116 million was going to be set for once-off cost-of-living measures for students. We had the Union of Students in Ireland before the committee earlier in the week. Cost-of-living challenges are a big issue for third level...
- Select Committee on Education and Skills: Estimates for Public Services 2024
Vote 45 - Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science (Supplementary) (24 Oct 2024) Jim O'Callaghan: The increased stipend for PhD students that was announced in the budget is not covered in the Supplementary Estimate; it does not need to be. Does the Minister of State think it will facilitate postgraduate students in terms of their further studies?

Dearbhaím go sollúnta go ndéanfaidh mé, go cuí agus go dílis agus a mhéid is eol agus is cumas dom, oifig Chathaoirleach an Choiste um Chuntais Phoiblí a...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Inniu is é an príomhchainteoir ná an Teachta Ciarán Cannon. Beidh 15 nóiméad aige. The lead speaker today is Deputy Ciarán Cannon, who has 15 minutes. All other members will have ten minutes, but I will allow them back for a second round of questions. At 11 a.m., we will take a short break.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh míle maith agat as sin. An dara chainteoir ná an Teachta Paul McAuliffe.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: To follow on, I have a brief question on that. Mr. Mulvany mentioned there that a self-assessment was done. We understand that from the briefing but then he mentioned a random sample was taken. I assume what Mr. Mulvany means is that it was assessed externally. Is that correct?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: How much of that random sample complied with the self-assessment? I assume a self-assessment was done initially and then had the random sample?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: So there was 10% issue.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Okay. It is just clearly an issue of concern when it is under 40% of what is actually being assessed and then there is also the amount that is not assessed. I will bring in the next speaker.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: I understand that and I read that. It is more than a limitation. It is quite concerning when significantly less than half can be looked at. However, I will bring in the next speaker, an Teachta Kelly.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh maith agat, an Teachta Kelly. We have heard two personal experiences today and they have been very powerful. We wish the Deputy's father a very speedy recovery. It is very difficult for people watching and listening to hear that, despite their own personal experiences and difficulties within the healthcare system and accessing healthcare, that one consultant would be paid such an...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Go raibh maith agat. I am conscious of time. I will allow everyone come back in for five minutes. I will take an Teachta Carthy. Then we will take our break and take a second round.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: Go raibh maith agat, a Chathaoirligh, agus comhghairdeas. I want to follow up on the issue of one individual who earned over €1 million, with €700,000 of that being an addition in their salary, and the instance whereby a significant portion of that was for a single shift where the person was paid at a rate of six hours per patient for each of four patients who were actually...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: What proportion did Mr. Gloster say?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: My question was whether it is possible. I take it from Mr. Gloster's answer that yes, it is possible.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023: Health Service Executive (24 Oct 2024)
Matt Carthy: Is it happening? That is the next question. Is it happening today at all?
