What can we do immediately? I hear the despair of this woman, and as Ms Rogers said, this is right across the board. This is just one constituent in Mayo. What can be done in the meantime until they get the dysfunction and administrative blockages sorted out? Who is blocking these? That is the first thing to ask the Minister tomorrow morning.

Somebody somewhere is preventing this from happening. As a public representative for County Mayo, I cannot stand over anyone saying that it is just the system. Could the person mentioned go to the North or Britain? They should not have to. People should be able to go to the North because the only way out of all of this is a national health service for the entire island. We have expertise on the island to be able to do that.
