- Seanad: National Dementia Strategy: Motion (24 Oct 2012)
Mark Daly: I support this wide-ranging motion. In the current economic climate, providing support for sufferers of dementia and their families is very challenging. Unfortunately, action on the Government's commitment to introduce legislation on the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is long overdue.
