Not shocking anymore. Kind of half expect this sort of stuff now.

Of course he denies a conflict of interest. When did you ever read, “Minister admits conflict of interest.”

O’Reilly would deny today is Friday. He cant even lay in bed straight at this stage.

From a guy who pushed two primary care sites in his own constituency up the list of potential sites…still waiting on the criteria you used Stroker!

Then what exactly is it then? Walks like a duck…etc

Welcome to Ireland,probably the most corrupt country in Europe

Hands up who is shocked or surprised by this. …….

We’ll get there stroke by stroke.

Reilly involved again no surprise there to be honest.

Shattergate mark2 ….Reilly on the inside track…….FG/Lab even more corrupt than FF, there is a scary reality…..Resign James you have your money made…..

How come the 20,000 commission was so low? The going rate for a report like this was 125,000 in 2011 and the Health Partnership is not a charity!

Women of Ireland, come together and let us al put a stop to this madness, I’d like to c a man in the full throws of labour, having to face a 2 hr car journey. On lovely pot-holed roads!!!

If he appointed someone from outside the area, the complaint would be that they didn’t understand the area.

If he appointed someone without the medical knowledge, the complaint would be that someone who didn’t understand medical provision was making the decisions

If he appoints someone from inside the area with the right medical background, the complaint is that there’s a conflict of interest.

I wish people would state who they think should be appointed, because almost every decision can have some line of attack.

How many absolute effin’ outrages are we, as a nation, prepared to put up with? This Minister and his shady pals should be run out of the country, let alone sacked.

And deny being in denial

How come this commission was 6 times less than the going rate for the job? A bargain at 20,000! Such reports cost 125,000 in 2011.

The Journal got it wrong! The Health Partnership predates 2008! in March 2005 the company wrote to the Dept of Finance highlighting their role in private health care ventures in Ireland, UK, Portugal and Germany and suggesting tax incentives for private sector players in e.g. direct service provision, the supply of high tech equipment, patient and staff accommodation, primary care provision, nursing home care, etc. Even hospital traffic management got a look in. Hard to believe no one in the West/North-West hospital group knew of Mr Daly’s involvement with this high profile healthcare company.

Why would anyone be surprised with this ruling class carryon, and they wonder why people voted for the left

The main conflict of interest here is the fact tgat Noel Daly wrote to revenue in 2005 with what could be described as a bluepriting which would see private interests profiting from tge removal of public services. In that letter it mentions how the private sector could provide accomodation for people who due to clousure of public services would have to travek greater distances.

Over 6 years later tgis man is appointed chair of a hospital group. In the space of little over a year his company is given the task of reviewing maternitu in the same region. This report is said to recommend many clousures.

Given all this histiry I cannot see how this review can hold any authority. Or indeed how anyone in this countru could trust its recommendations.

In fact this review ihas been damaged beyond repair. Hiwever it should be made available to the public.

Luje Ming Flaagan spoje about concerns that gospital staff had about how tgis revuew was completed. Perhaps he should come back to this important debate in Irish healthcare before he leaves fir Europe.

Reilly people dont believe a word from your lying mouth!
