Overseas Development Aid: Motion.

 

Ireland did good work on the TRIPS agreement and I am delighted that retroviral drugs are now being made available. The development of resistant strains is a worry but we will have to cross that bridge when we come to it. When I spoke to people in Uganda, Zambia and other countries about white cell counts and the sophisticated treatments we carry out in this country, they thought I was half mad. I probably was even to mention them but we must try to supply as much as we can.
