Mattie McGrath (Tipperary South, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I too want to be associated with the good wishes and I thank the Leas-Cheann Comhairle for all his kindness and courtesy and all the Members who are retiring after long service. I want to ask the Tánaiste about an issue in Tipperary and around the country, namely, the rural practice allowance for GPs. The Tánaiste is very familiar with Bansha, County Tipperary, where there is great confusion and ineptitude on the part of HSE officials to fill the position. This is under the health information Bill.
