Patrick GeogheganHOST
And so he's able to maybe present himself as having been vindicated by that acquittal.
Patrick GeogheganHOST
But the fact that he was able to come back, he returned as Minister for Health and Social Welfare.
Patrick GeogheganHOST
He was able to then position himself for the leadership at the end of the decade.
Patrick GeogheganHOST
That is a remarkable comeback.
Vincent BrowneGUEST
It is, but aided and abetted by Jack Lynch, leader of Fianna Fáil, who was weak, a weak person.
Vincent BrowneGUEST
And the Fianna Fáil front bench in opposition from 1973 to 1977 were pathetic people.
Vincent BrowneGUEST
bunch of people and there was a lot of pressure within the party to bring Hawhey back and eventually Lynch yielded and brought Hawhey back and made him Shadow Minister for Health and then appointed him Minister for Health and Minister for Social Welfare in the government of 1977.
Patrick GeogheganHOST
You have a chapter on him, the shaming of a Taoiseach when he finally became Taoiseach and some of the attacks on him.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
Today, we're not covering the next three movies, although we are continuing chronologically with We're skipping two because those are lumped into later episodes by theme.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
Today, we're going to be talking about Essene from 1972, Juvenile Court, and then Welfare from 1975.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
In the middle of those, you've also got Basic Training, which we'll be talking about on the next episode, which will have a military theme.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
And then there's also Primate, which we'll talk about on the fourth episode, which has a theme about animals, animal life, and things of that nature.

Zachary MorgasonHOST
That's a unique diversion from what we usually do in one of these movies.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
Juvenile court, we're in the juvenile court.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
Welfare, we're in the welfare office.
Zachary MorgasonHOST
And there are these connectivity pieces.
Vivian GrahamGUEST
We have five or six EROs in the Midlands.
Vivian GrahamGUEST

Vivian GrahamGUEST
So I suppose in terms of going on to the sort of practical, from the practical pieces to the more financial pieces, you know, we have a work to consider, particularly if you, you know, if you want to grow your business, you want to build capacity, but, you know, you don't want to make, I suppose, that contractual commitment.
Vivian GrahamGUEST
It's a 26-week, 30-hour per week programme, so a six-month programme.
Vivian GrahamGUEST

Vivian GrahamGUEST
We'll tell you maybe what's going on, what would be relevant to you.
Paul BourgetGUEST
If they come for good and welfare, they leave.
Paul BourgetGUEST
I mean, that's similar to what city council, and it's very frustrating when we have a lot of people complaining about things or issues.
Paul BourgetGUEST
We can't talk to them during Good and Welfare, but we certainly can talk to them before the meeting and after the meeting, or they can set up appointments where we could really discuss issues with them.
Paul BourgetGUEST
But those are the main issues that we're dealing with.
Paul BourgetGUEST
And of course, the other big gorilla we deal with every day is the budget.
Sarah McInerneyHOST
We were talking about this on the show yesterday.
Sarah McInerneyHOST
This is the report about Arnott's department store asking for social welfare payments to be removed from the GPO, which they said would be a way of tackling antisocial behaviour in the area.
Sarah McInerneyHOST
Graeme, would you be around O'Connell Street much?
Graham FinlayGUEST
I would.
Geraldine HerbertGUEST
And I thought it was really, really bad for Arnott's because like this is obviously a hugely important business in O'Connell Street and a hugely important business.
Geraldine HerbertGUEST
Well, they're not on O'Connell Street as such, but off O'Connell Street.
Geraldine HerbertGUEST
But to make that association with, you know, the problems of this are tied up with social welfare.
Geraldine HerbertGUEST
It was just a really, really, I thought, damaging thing to say and missed out on just the bigger picture of what was going on in O'Connell Street at the moment.

James KaddisHOST
Why? Because it's in the wrong hands.
James KaddisHOST
Welfare does not belong in the hands of the government.
James KaddisHOST
If it belongs in the hands of the government, all you will see is injustice, all you will see is fraud, and all you will see is everything breaking at every bend.
James KaddisHOST
That's what government does.
James KaddisHOST
Government destroys on so many levels.
James KaddisHOST
Now, with all that said, Welfare belongs in the hands of Almighty God.
James KaddisHOST
It belongs under the stewardship of the church.
James KaddisHOST
It's my opinion.

With 44 contacts already identified presently, with public health teams identifying and monitoring people who may have been exposed, including health care workers, patients, caregivers, and travel contractors.
Emmanuel OkeHOST
You heard it from the Minister for Health and Social Welfare, Professor Muhammad Ali Pate, giving a confirmation of the index case of the new strain of Ebola.
Emmanuel OkeHOST
The new strain has this strange name I don't want to bother pronouncing this morning.
Emmanuel OkeHOST
But what is more important is that those 44 contacts must present for testing.
Travis Lee RussGUEST

Travis Lee RussGUEST
And could I actually find files about real individuals who were incarcerated on Welfare Island in the '20s and '30s and tell their stories? And I just couldn't get it outta my brain.
Travis Lee RussGUEST
[upbeat music]
Eric MarcusHOST
Travis gathered a team of researchers and they set to work.
Travis Lee RussGUEST
I mean, come on.
Travis Lee RussGUEST

speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

Ronald ReaganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Three million families in this country are poverty-stricken on the basis of earning less than $3,000 a year.
Ronald ReaganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Welfare spending ten times greater than it was in the dark depths of the Depression.
Ronald ReaganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We're spending $45 billion on welfare.
Ronald ReaganSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Now do a little arithmetic and you'll find that if we divided the $45 billion up equally among those 9 million poor families, we'd be able to give each family $4,600 a year.
