I have tabled among the normal health questions a query that would allow the Minister of State to elaborate as I would wish. I was acting leader of my party yesterday in the Dáil and I had the opportunity to put these questions to the Taoiseach. I ask them of the Minister of State today because I did not get the answers I desired. I am still not getting the answers, so what forum is open to me? The 15,300 cards are welcome but we all know that they will not include everyone who has been so seriously affected over this period. Areas have not been included and the hurt and pain of some people will be compounded by their being excluded once again. It is a vista ahead of everybody in political life.
