Colm Burke: I am dealing with this matter on behalf of the Minister for Health.

Claire Kerrane: I acknowledge the announcement of the one-off €3 million in funding that will roll out this year. I have no doubt that East Galway and Midlands Cancer Support will attain full membership of that alliance.

Alan Kelly: The Minister of State is a good person but that response, by and large, is a standard reply. I contacted his officials, as he will be aware, this evening to let him know that I would read into the record this agreement from November 2019. I cannot state this any clearer.
