Government Policy and the Provision of Services for the Elderly: Statements.

 

Senator Ulick Burke referred to a number of issues. The security of the elderly is an issue I have taken up with the Garda Commissioner as recently as this week, when I had a very fruitful meeting with him. I do not want to pre-empt what my officials and his will come up with but when I report back to the House, the Senator will be quite impressed. Areas mentioned by him such as community policing will be included. I also remind him of the rural initiative undertaken by my colleague, the Minister for Transport.
