Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I ask the Deputies to listen as this is an important issue. The patients' representatives who are on the committee discussed this issue and agreed with that approach. I can get the date in December. I do not have it in front of me, but there is no hiding of information; we can get it. I understand the Minister then asked for a full report to provide the full details of the numbers involved and so on. As he had not actually received the report, he could not inform the House of its contents.
