I commend the Meningitis Research Foundation on the powerful presentation it gave in Buswells Hotel several weeks ago. Representatives from the foundation gave powerful testimony on the work that was being done. I was especially struck by Liam Mulvihill's story about his daughter. One gentlemen who was originally from Dublin came from the UK to describe the effects and incidence of the disease. I regret that the briefing was not attended by more Members of the Oireachtas. It was from that session that Deputy Troy, Deputy Ó Caoláin and I decided to arrange this morning's meeting.
