On the same matter, but on a slightly different aspect, the Minister is proposing his own compassionate access Bill to facilitate people, such as Vera Twomey and many others, getting access. Is it intended to facilitate people who have prescriptions from outside the jurisdiction to bring in medication from outside it and use it in Ireland? Will people be able to travel throughout the EU with their prescriptions if this proposed Bill is passed or is that facility already in place? Can people already bring in medication which may not be recognised in this country?
