- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (3 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I do not know how the secretariat copes with all of the stuff with which it has to deal. It is doing a brilliant job. When we receive correspondence and there may be a need for follow-up correspondence, would it be practical to be given a reminder of the question, especially if the correspondence arrives on the day? I will try not to come back in, but I know that we had an issue with the...

Marc MacSharry: May it go into the back pocket of the company?
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (3 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: The reality is that if a good few euro were not claimed this year, it would mean it would need less of an operational budget for marketing next year. In effect, it is going into the back pocket.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (3 May 2018)

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (3 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: We dealt earlier with bringing in the four people to make an example of them for being late in the submission of their accounts or whatever else. That is grand, but will we still have people in from the third level institutions?
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (3 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: That is okay. I just wanted to make sure it would happen. There seems to be a missing week, the week of the referendum.

- Mental Health Parity Bill 2017: Second Stage [Private Members] (2 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I know the topic is no stranger to the Minister of State at the Department of Health with special responsibility for disabilities, Deputy Finian McGrath, and I do not doubt his personal commitment. It is a shame the Minister of State at the Department of Health, Deputy Jim Daly, could not make time to be here for the entire debate because it is a very serious matter. There are not many...
- National Cervical Screening Programme: Statements (1 May 2018)
Marc MacSharry: I have a couple of quick points. I thought there would be questions but that will not be the case. The Minister can take them as questions and come back to the House later. Why is the State not paying the €8,500 every three weeks for Vicky Phelan's treatment? She is doing that out of her own pocket or the goodwill of friends and family through a GoFundMe page. We need to do...
