Seanad debates

Health Services: Motion.
It is appalling that the cynical use of a personal tragedy should be used for nakedly political reasons and that people should be manipulated when they are in the throes of the most appalling personal problems to make political points. That has been done, not once but several times. We must act on the reports. We must accept that in some circumstances public representatives have acted in the same self-serving way as some others who are within the system. There is the question of the influence of personal liability insurance, but that is a debate for another day.
