My understanding is that Nenagh is prepared to be that so where is the blockage? For people looking in here today that is inexplicable. It would come across as unnecessary red tape for an 85-year-old woman who the system to be fair to it, and we criticise the system a lot, in this case is facilitating to have a better quality of life at her age and have her treatment nearer to her home. From a carbon footprint perspective, from every perspective, it makes sense. Yet, the blockage seems to be coming from the Irish Cancer Society's end. That is not acceptable to me.
