When can we expect the transition to personal budgets for people with disabilities? I have numerous other questions. Overall, I note that the answers I am getting from the HSE in reply to the questions I submit are not at all satisfactory. I have another question on GPs charging for blood samples, which is a continuing practice. When will that be addressed? Is it going to be addressed within the GP contract? It is absolutely wrong that it continues to be done, in particular for people on extremely low incomes.
