The Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, Deputy Howlin, announced some exciting challenges for Government and society in e-government and e-health. I am not sure we will hit the targets he has outlined even with the investment and roll-out of broadband, in particular in rural areas. Under e-health, we would need super broadband roll-out to exploit fully the potential of e-health. Will Deputy Rabbitte look again at our capacity to fully engage with e-government and e-health?
