Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I will refer to Deputy Martin's question first. I made the point that this is a vicious, murderous campaign between two families which I, as a person, cannot stop. However, I assure Deputy Martin, the House and the people that, as Head of Government, whatever resources, facilities and backing the Garda Commissioner requests from the Government to protect our citizens and to deal with this will be made available. That point has been made clearly by the Minister for Justice and Equality on a number of occasions.

The Government will not lie down in the face of this particular continuing murderous onslaught. Let me make that perfectly clear.

The Deputy made a valid point about prescription drugs which Deputy Shortall raised as well. I will take that matter up with the Minister for Health, and let us have a discussion about it to see what is actually possible.
