Liam Twomey (Wexford, Fine Gael)

Is it fair to suggest that the Government has given a lukewarm reception to the proposal to introduce a screening programme in this regard? It has given a similarly lukewarm reception to the breast cancer screening programme, which is being rolled out very slowly, and an even more lukewarm reception to the cervical cancer screening programme. Does the Government have any regard at all for the proposal to screen for diseases of this nature within the health care system?
