James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

Further to the issue raised by our leader, Deputy Kenny, where many vulnerable people will be paying up to 75% of their disability allowance towards long-stay care, when can we expect the publication of the eligibility for health and personal services Bill to come before the House? It is an important Bill and I do not want to hear that it will be next year.
