  • Mary Butler TD Fianna Fáil Waterford October Newsletter Butler Condemns Appalling Conditions at Dept of Psychiatry at University Hospital Waterford
    Mary Butler TD with Cork North Central by-Election Candidate Cllr Padraig O’Sullivan Mary Butler TD Fianna Fáil Waterford October Newsletter Butler Condemns Appalling Conditions At Dept Of Psychiatry At University Hospital Waterford Fianna Fáil TD for Waterford Mary Butler has described as appalling, reports of conditions at the Department of Psychiatry at University Hospital Waterford. Deputy Butler said, “The images of overcrowding, with patients sleeping on chairs and floors are deeply distressing and completely unacceptable. However they come as absolutely no surprise to anyone working in or with our mental health services. “Only last month, the Mental Health Commission revealed a 57% compliance rate at the unit and outlined serious concerns with children being admitted to adult units, physical examinations, staffing issues and the use of physical restraint. “Today’s images vividly outline the seriousness of the situation, with overcrowding reaching intolerable levels. Earlier this week 54 patients were being treated in a 44 bed unit. This is deplorable; not only does it impact on patient dignity, it also poses serious safety risks. “These are vulnerable patients in need of special supports, but under Fine Gael their treatment has been vastly diminished. Our system is almost beyond breaking point and the Health Minister has no plan. “Patients at UHW deserve better, but conditions at some units in the hospital appear to be getting worse, not better. Minister Harris needs to concentrate more on fixing the problems in health rather than putting his energy into premature election campaigns. Unless he turns his attention to his day job the situation at Waterford and indeed other hospitals will continue to deteriorate”, concluded Deputy Butler.

Teachta / Deputy Fiona O’Loughlin sa Chathaoir / in the Chair. 1 JES The joint committee met in private session until 4.40 p.m. School Transport Scheme: Discussion Chairman: I remind delegates and members to turn off their mobile phones because they interfere with the sound system, making it difficult for the parliamentary reporters to report the proceedings of the meeting. They also affect the television coverage and web streaming. The purpose in this part of the meeting is to discuss with a number of stakeholders matters related to the operation of the school transport scheme. Obviously, it is very important to have a school transport scheme that is fit for purpose and efficient and offers value for money. There is particular interest in the concessionary places and the places for children with special needs who have to attend special classes or special schools. On behalf of the joint committee, I welcome from the Department of Education and Skills Mr. Richard Dolan, principal officer, and Ms Niamh McElduff, assistant principal officer, from the school transport unit.

  • 5.107 Padraig O'sullivan TD to Ask the Minister for Children and Youth
    5.107 Padraig O'Sullivan TD To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs what provisions are being made by her Department to assist in the provision of childcare for frontline workers who are providing essential services to the public and if she will make a statement on the matter. The Deputy is aware that the Covid-19 Pandemic has created major challenges for Ireland. The sudden closure of centre-based Early Learning and Care (ELC) and School Age Childcare (SAC) services on 12 March 2020 was an unexpected but necessary move to safeguard public health in Ireland. The Deputy may also be aware that on 7 May, I announced new emergency measures to support essential health workers who are having difficulty meeting their ELC and SAC needs. This forms part of Phase 1 of the Government’s Roadmap for Reopening Society and Business. It is scheduled for commencement on 18 May, subject to further NPHET advice and a Government decision later this week on whether restrictions can start to be eased. The service will be a temporary one and is limited to parents / guardians defined as essential health workers during the Covid-19 emergency. The delivery of ELC and SAC services to this group follows Government plans to lift restrictions gradually and in line with public health advice and recommendations. The scheme is designed as an outreach model and as such offers the greatest public health protection for children, their families and the ELC and SAC practitioners who will offer this new service. Existing, registered ELC and SAC services have been asked to consider signing up for the service and opening as an outreach hub.

  • Don't Tax Our Health Choices!
    DON’T TAX OUR HEALTH CHOICES! From March 1st 2019 the Government will be applying VAT at 23% to all Vitamin, Probiotic & Food Supplements. These supplements have been VAT free for the last 40 years! A2 POSTER CODE: VAT03 A4 POSTER CODE: VAT04 +23% Available from Wholefoods VAT HEALTH IS NOT A LUXURY! SIGN THE PETITION TODAY! @stopthisvat www.stopthisvat.ie What is happening: The Revenue Commissioners have decided that on March 1st 2019, 23% VAT will be applied to all health food supplements. This includes Vitamins, Probiotics and Fish Oil. What does this mean? On March 1st 2019, retailers must apply 23% VAT to all health food supplements, resulting in a 23% price increase for consumers. Such a sudden and radical increase in taxation will put a huge strain on consumers and cause many to have to reconsider their approach towards managing their health. This is bound to seriously damage the local Irish businesses that are the cornerstone of the industry sector, particularly if consumers turn to the international Internet to try and obtain a better priced product. What can I do: • Sign the petition (online and in-store) which can be found at www.stopthisvat.ie. • Additional petition hardcopies are available from Wholefoods Wholesale (product code: VAT02). Wholefoods drivers will happily take completed petitions back from you. Please ensure that all petitions are returned to Wholefoods by February 18th. • Actively encourage customers to sign the petition and highlight what VAT will mean for their purchases. • Email or write to your local minister or TD. Sample text can be found on page 3 of this document.
