Order of Business.

Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)
It is certainly very inadequate.
Senator Ó Murchú raised the issue of the Pat Finucane case and asked me to raise it with the Minister for Foreign Affairs to see if a public inquiry into the issue could be secured. I agree that it will undermine belief in the security forces if it is not attended to.
Senator Finucane supports Senator Henry's call for a debate on issues relating to nursing and what he perceives as a lack of co-ordination between Temple Street and Crumlin Hospitals that could address some of the inadequacies were it rectified. We passed a vote of sympathy on the death of the young child in question and should all vow that it should not happen again.
