Geraldine Feeney: The House did not sit on 8 March, which was International Women's Day. This was also the day a young man found guilty of rape walked out of court without a custodial sentence. A young woman in Ennis had to give up her right to anonymity to tell the nation about her horrific case. There was uproar with people from all walks of life commenting on the case and every news programme discussing...

- Seanad: Pharmacy Bill 2007: Second Stage (20 Mar 2007)
Geraldine Feeney: I welcome the Minister and the Bill. To say it is long awaited is to put it mildly as the existing pharmacy regulation is 130 years old. The medical practitioners legislation is 30 years old. Even though the regulation is 130 years old, one never hears about pharmacists â community, hospital or industrial â getting themselves into trouble or kicking up a storm or being demanding. They...
- Seanad: Pharmacy Bill 2007: Second Stage (20 Mar 2007)
Geraldine Feeney: Indeed. It is easy for me to say what I am going to say next. Everybody should be encouraged to build a relationship with a pharmacist, just as we build a relationship with a doctor. I had a meeting today with two pharmacists who made the same point as Senator Minihan made and which he knows from experience, as he was the manager of a pharmacy. A pharmacist may have more time to speak to...

- Seanad: Pharmacy Bill 2007: Committee and Remaining Stages (22 Mar 2007)
Geraldine Feeney: I wish to follow up on a point made by Senator Browne on prescription validity and the point raised by Senator Henry.

It would make it more economical, not for the pharmacist but...

Geraldine Feeney: I also wish to voice my concern to the Minister. I welcome that these issues are being addressed by the Bill and that the Minister will deal further with hospital pharmacies and pharmacists in the second Bill.

Geraldine Feeney: On the point raised by Senator Ryan, from my experience of having been a member of the Medical Council, in regard to mediation or in the case of the Medical Council where there is a health committee, such a practitioner would not go before a fitness to practise committee but yet there would be genuine concerns about his or her practice which would render restrictions being imposed. In the...
