Motion (resumed) (1hr. 30 m. remaining):

33. "That Dáil Éireann:

believing that there has been a further serious erosion of confidence in the public health service arising from:

— the mishandling of the SARS threat by the Minister for Health and Children,

— the issuing of inadequate, confusing and contradictory communications,

— the lack of a speedy and comprehensive public information campaign, and

— the Minister’s failure to resolve the dispute with public health doctors at a time when the need for their expertise is greatest;

notes that these failures are symptomatic of a more general failure by this Government and its predecessor to effectively and efficiently manage the health service at a time of unprecedented spending; and

calls on the Minister for Health and Children to address this crisis of confidence and provide the leadership and clarity of purpose which his Office demands by:

— immediately resolving the public health doctors dispute to provide 24 hour/seven day public health cover,

— ensuring that when threats to public health arise, a clear, coordinated and effective public health communications strategy is implemented without delay, and

— publishing as a matter of urgency his proposals for the reform of the health services, including clear and transparent definition of functions, responsibilities and accountability of those charged with the development of policy and the delivery of services."

"— endorses the speedy and comprehensive response by the Minister for Health and Children to the threat of SARS which is fully in accordance with World Health Organisation guidelines and endorsed by them, including in particular:

— the prompt and ongoing public information campaign alerting members of the public to the signs and symptoms, causes and transmission modes of SARS and travel advisories in relation to travel to and from affected areas;

— the detailed guidance provided to health professionals in relation to the diagnosis, clinical management, surveillance and contact tracing for suspect and probable SARS cases and to airline crew and cleaning staff in relation to the possible in-flight care and follow-up procedures for a suspect case of SARS;

— the comprehensive opearational framework established to provide an integrated public service wide response, comprising:

— an Expert Committee

— an Inter-Departmental Planning Group

— a Health Service Implementation Group, and

— a Communications Group;

— acknowledges the Minister’s efforts to resolve the Public Health Doctors dispute within the framework of public sector pay policy, in particular the Social Partnership Agreement, ‘Sustaining Progress’ and calls on the Irish Medical Organisation to continue talks with a view to resolving the dispute having regard to the serious threat posed by infectious diseases, including SARS; and

— notes the intention of the Minister for Health and Children to bring proposals to Government shortly for the reform of the health services."
