Mary Butler (Waterford, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

With Brexit looming in 36 days, it may have many difficult consequences for all of us in this country. It has recently been brought to my attention that the supply of pendants for the senior alert scheme, worn by elderly people living alone or in rural areas, may be impacted because they are sourced in the UK. If a person applies for one of these pendants, he or she will currently get it within two weeks. It is very reliable. I am very worried that if we have a hard Brexit, this may be impacted.
