Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Irish Blood Transfusion Service: Chairperson Designate

10:30 am

Professor Anthony Staines:

If it is the person I think it is, our medical director has met with that person as well. We are having discussions about it. We are not quite sure how it will pan out, but we want to have a haemochromatosis service that is accessible to everybody. In that case, one would not have to attend a clinic 40 or 100 miles from one's house for a venesection. We have to figure out what is the best and most economical way to achieve that.
