Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

Will the Taoiseach at least allow a full presentation by the Minister for Health to the Dáil on the financial crisis in the health service in order that we can be told, openly and honestly, what the Government's approach will be in dealing with the crisis? If the Minister is willing to take suggestions from across the House, such an engagement would facilitate this, but we must at least have openness and a transparent approach to the budget. Second, will the Taoiseach ensure, in accordance with what the Tánaiste told me last week, that all documentation on the primary care centre sites is published once and for all in order that we can get to the bottom of what happened and discover why a particular site in Dublin was moved from an open-lease arrangement to a public private partnership? All we are asking for is this basic information.
