Michael Healy-Rae (Kerry South, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I am asking the question with regard to the Health (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill. I recall what the Government stated in the programme for Government about taking care of elderly people, so this is the place for the Taoiseach to answer the question and to allay their fears. They are ringing Members on all sides of the House about it. The Taoiseach does not need the Chief Whip to tell him how he should reply.
