Ms Susan Mullins:

That is more than we hoped for. It is music to our ears that the chairperson has said the HSE and HIQA will be asked to come to explain their reasons. They are not written down in any reports that we can see. It is just an opinion that was made. Asking parliamentary questions is also fantastic to keep the issue and hopes alive. It is about keeping the hope alive. We did not lose it during Covid and there is still hope. We will continue to fight for that in a peaceful way but very strongly. We all feel very strongly about this.

It was lovely to have such a warm welcome and hear so much support across the political divide. The action group and everybody supporting it are completely apolitical. Health transcends all of that. It was lovely for us and the members of the action group, including Mr. Torpey and me, to have such a warm welcome from the Deputies and Senators, and the Chairperson who has been so helpful and so nice. Thank you.
