I thank the Deputies for raising this matter. I know that they are sincere in their interest in it. I am standing in for the Minister of State at the Department of Health who is responsible for this area. Unfortunately, I have been given the wrong reply. I must, therefore, apologise for my inability to respond to the specific issues raised, but I will certainly bring the matter to the attention of the Minister of State. I again apologise to the Deputies. I expected a different issue to be raised by Deputy Mattie McGrath as that is what I was advised. I will certainly bring the serious and important matter raised by the Deputies to the attention of the Minister of State.
