John Gormley (Dublin South East, Green Party)

I am opposed to the guillotining of this Bill. We have witnessed a debacle when legislation was guillotined. The Tánaiste should have learned the lesson of rushing legislation through this House but she obviously has not. She appears to be behaving like a headless chicken in respect of health services in the State. There has been an accident and emergency crisis, MRSA is rampant and now the Tánaiste's colleague is proposing a mobile telephone mast for my constituency, which will pose a threat to the children in Dublin South-East.
