James Reilly (Dublin North, Fine Gael)

Given the fact that we are facing a huge medical legal bill with MRSA and C. difficile in our hospitals and with the Stop Infection Now volunteer group also examining consumer rights law to further claims, when will the Bill dealing with HIQA be introduced? Will it afford it the power to censure hospitals as at present is it toothless? I do not want to provoke the Ceann Comhairle who has been fair, but I would like to provoke some action from the other side of the House.
