Opticians (Amendment) Bill 2002: Second Stage.

 

Look at how the world has changed since then. When I first came to the Seanad, I examined every Bill to see whether I could detect anything in it with which I could be of help. Therefore, I looked out for the customer in every Bill. If it was a health Bill, I looked out for the patient; if it was an education Bill, I looked out for the student, and if it was a road traffic Bill, I looked out for the road user. When I looked at this Bill, I considered how the world had changed in my business since 1956. Back then I worked in a small grocery shop in the co-op in DĂșn Laoghaire.
