We have a proposal agreed by the committee that we will do that. As Deputy Ó Caoláin said, as a committee we do not normally meet delegations but in this case, given the exceptional situation and the importance of the matter we are discussing, we decided to hold this special meeting on the issue, which happened to coincide with the delegation's meeting with the Minister. We hope it will bear fruit for its campaign. It has our support and the committee will advocate for it on a cross-party basis with the Minister, the Department and the HSE.
