Marie Moloney: I extend my sincere sympathy to the family of a man who lost his life in a house fire in Beaufort near Killarney last night. I do not call for a debate, but I warmly welcome a newspaper report regarding developments in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. The UK Department of Health is due to publish a review of the breast cancer screening programme later this year. According to a recent...

Seanad: Order of Business (22 Mar 2012)

Marie Moloney: I condemn the actions of AIB in requiring its customers to have €2,500 in their current accounts to avail of free banking. How many people in Ireland today can afford to leave that amount of money sitting in an account?

Seanad: Ambulance Service (22 Mar 2012)

Marie Moloney: I thank the Minister, Deputy Hogan, for coming to the House to take this Adjournment matter, although it does not come under his remit, on behalf of the Minister for Health.

The Minister is familiar with the area being a regular visitor...

Marie Moloney: No. We had a meeting several months ago with representatives of the ambulance service and the HSE and received the same reply, word for word. We asked them to go away and review the situation and come back to us with proposals on how they would provide a service on the peninsulas. We do not believe this service will work in those areas, although I am not saying it will not work in the rest...

Seanad: Order of Business (21 Mar 2012)

Marie Moloney: I voice my concern in regard to the proposal to destroy the database which hold details of blood tests taken from babies, known as the heel test. This practice has been going on since the 1960s and there has never been a complaint about it. I know it contravenes EU law but it might be a retrograde step. Other Senators raised the household charge but I have a suggestion for the Leader to...

Seanad: Special Educational Needs (14 Mar 2012)

Marie Moloney: I thank the Minister, Deputy Quinn, for taking the time to come to the House to deal with this issue. To me, education is a right, not a privilege. It is important to give children the very best possible start in life. When one of these children has a physical disability but a perfect IQ, we need to make a special effort to bring out the best in that child. The young child to whom I refer...
