That is agreed. The next petition is No. 38/2021 calling for an increase in the upper age limit for joining the Army. The petitioner is Mr. David Lawrence. The recommendation is that the correspondence from the Department of Defence be forwarded to Mr. Lawrence for comment. If members do not have any views on this, I will take it that it is agreed.

The next petition is No. 42/2021. It is concerned with saving the services of the Owenacurra centre in Midleton, County Cork and the petitioner is Ms Joanne Curtis. The recommendation is that the correspondence from the HSE be forwarded to Ms Curtis for comment. Do members have any views on this? We discussed in private session the fact that this particular issue is being dealt with by the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Health at the moment. The recommendation was that we would allow that committee to investigate the matter and we would revisit it in the new year. Does Deputy Buckley wish to make a comment?
