Joe Costello (Dublin Central, Labour)

The Tánaiste stated the Government's success would be judged on how she dealt with accident and emergency departments. This refers to policy and legislation. I deal with the Mater Hospital, in particular, in the Taoiseach's constituency. When will the accident and emergency department waiting lists in all Dublin hospitals be eliminated, which was her priority? When is a priority a priority? When will it be implemented? Is she only paying lip-service to this issue and doing nothing about it?
