I would like to finish. I pay tribute to those members. In conclusion, for the second time, this afternoon I was delighted to attend the launch by the Organisation of National Ex-Servicemen and Women, ONE, of its annual fuchsia appeal. The work of ONE is an important support in the lives of many members of the Defence Forces. I know that from speaking to ex-servicemen and women from my constituency in Wexford.
I reiterate the health and welfare of the Defence Forces is a high priority for me, as Minister of State, and the military authorities. This will continue to inform the approach to the issue of protecting our personnel from the significant risks posed by malaria.
