Confidence in the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2025-10-15
============================================================

Emer Currie (FG), Dublin West

I welcome the announcement by the Minister for Health that there will be an inquiry into the spina bifida and complex scoliosis service at Children's Health Ireland and that it will form part of a wider reflection on paediatric services. The Government must confront these failures openly and honestly, and is doing so. Peadar Tóibín said he would use the presidential election as a referendum on Simon Harris. His actions are not about families and children.
