I refer to the Technological Universities Bill, which came before the House before Christmas. Given the relevance it has for a town such as Tralee, will it be passed by the House before the election? It would provide financial, institutional and educational benefits.

Deputy Martin referred to the cystic fibrosis drug Orkambi. If we cannot have a debate on it in the House, I suggest the Joint Committee on Health and Children debate the issue over the next couple of weeks. It has the potential to save a lot of lives and is of enormous importance to the nation.
