Jan O'Sullivan TD

Welcome from Jan O'Sullivan TD Spokesperson on Health

Thank you for visiting my website,

As T.D. for Limerick East, I am honoured to represent the constituency in the Dail giving a voice to the people of Limerick City and County and part of County Clare.

It is important to me to take the time to meet my constituents and provide support and help whenever I can. My regular Advice Clinics (details and times on this website) give me an opportunity to meet people and listen to their concerns and issues.

As Party spokesperson on Health, I am deeply committed to the Labour vision of a Fair Society and inclusive society where access to services such as Health is universal and based on the needs of people. However, I am extremely concerned that our society is becoming more and more inequitable under current Government policies. In a time of plenty, we have a bad Government in good times.

We have the potential to have one of the best Health systems in the world. Instead, the percentage of our national wealth that we spend on Health is one of the lowest in the EU.

Since becoming Health spokesperson, I intend to highlight the myriad of problems that still exist within the Health system and campaign for this Government and Minister for Health to be held accountable for their failure to adequately reform and put in place a Health service that we as a modern country can be proud of.

Labour's vision for Ireland is a vision of community, with solidarity among our people. It's a vision of freedom and greater equality, a vision of citizenship that acknowledges rights and teaches responsibilities, a vision of security, with safe streets, safe home and safe communities, a vision of public service in a country that values the contribution of all citizens to the common good.

We welcome new members and supporters.
