Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

I wanted to reassure the Minister of State should the Official Report be read out of context.

The Minister of State commented that one had to be mindful of the entire jurisdiction. As a Border resident, I argue that our reality must therefore be taken into account. I made a point about the special circumstances in which we live, but in taking the interests of everyone in this jurisdiction into account one must point to the need for greater regulation and the official designation of chiropracty which is in the interests of every citizen. If the Minister of State is not in the position to accede to my request today, I hope the arguments will be taken on board and that chiropracty will be designated under section 4(2) of the Bill following the Government's acceptance of the sound arguments for why it should be so.
