Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am sorry to hear about the situation the Deputy has outlined. I do not know the details, obviously, but it does not seem right, on the face of it, that somebody should be without access to a necessary treatment based on the fact that they live in Tipperary rather than Cork or Limerick. The Deputy mentioned that he has raised the matter with the Minister of State, Deputy Jim Daly, and I will also talk to him about it to see if something can be done.
