John Moloney (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

Unlike Deputy Stanton, I think they would give people the chance to put their case, without flogging the horse before it even starts to gallop. I welcome the Bill. It is a sincere effort to provide for disability. That the former Minister for Health and Children, Deputy Cowen, recognised the need to put substantial funding in place has been a build up to the Bill. I welcome it and wish it an easy passage through the House.
