Séamus Healy: In line with A Vision for Change, such acute services must be provided locally. Service users in south Tipperary have been seeking a meeting with the Minister of State, Deputy Kathleen Lynch, for some time. Will she inform us when it will take place?

Dormant Accounts (Amendment) Bill 2011 [Seanad]: Second Stage (15 Nov 2011)

Séamus Healy: I welcome the opportunity to speak on this Bill. As stated by previous speakers, this Bill is necessary because moneys in the dormant accounts fund are not public but private moneys belonging to individuals.

Developments in the Eurozone: Statements (Resumed) (2 Nov 2011)

Séamus Healy: I heard a Government Deputy suggest the Government has a mandate for the approach it is taking. Let us be clear on this matter; Fine Gael and the Labour Party do not have a mandate for the policies they are pursuing.
