Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Progressive Democrats)

There is the carping, negativity and wrong suggestions that constantly come from Deputy McManus. She gave Deputy Howlin three months in office when he was Minister and we have a lot of notes to compare. All the comments are the same. Any good suggestions will be taken on board. Wrong suggestions will be challenged but, above all, the people know the Government is committed to health reform and it will succeed.
