Dr. Jerome Coffey:

There have been plans. It is a while since I looked at it. As far as I can recall, there have been submissions through the Estimates process in previous years to extend the programme to boys. The Irish Cancer Society, with which I speak on a regular basis, is a very strong advocate of this and I support it. I understand that due to the fall in uptake this year there are supplies available that could be rolled out and administered to boys. Again, it would require a logistical probe to make that happen.
