Government Policy and the Provision of Services for the Elderly: Statements.
The groups have annual magazines and the Bealtaine festival. They meet each other and are affiliated to national organisations. It gets them around the country, and I had the privilege of bringing my local active age group to Leinster House. They were not all supporters of my party, but they certainly enjoyed themselves. They would never have been together but for the VEC co-ordinating elderly people in the group. That is one area that we should examine.
