I was going to say I was annoyed the Minister was not present to take this matter. I spoke to him briefly about this matter yesterday. Parents are very concerned that Vertex was able to contact them to tell them that it had not been contacted by the HSE regarding negotiations on the supply of Orkambi. I would like to defer this Topical Issue until next week, as I would like the Minister to come into the Chamber to take it because it is a very important issue concerning people with cystic fibrosis and parents who have been contacted by Vertex. I hope they will not be too anxious about this over the weekend.
