Cancer Treatment Services: Statements (Resumed).
I am delighted that the Minister for Health and Children, Deputy Martin, has seen fit to extend the BreastCheck programme to the entire country. I am especially delighted that many areas in the west like Galway, Sligo, Roscommon, Donegal, Mayo and Leitrim are to have the facility of a mobile unit where screening can be carried out. I support Senator Henry when she talks about the unique nature of generic cancers and how there should be special accommodation made for people who find themselves in that position.
