I am happy for the Senator who also raised the matter of Professor O'Leary in Trinity. This testing has not changed for 60 years since the 1940s. It is wonderful that Professor O'Leary did not seek to patent his discovery and thereby make loads of money. This way services will become more readily available. Well done to him.

On the Red Bull drink, I cannot say what is happening. We will have to await developments. Senator Mansergh robustly rebuts the allegation about slush funds. Senator Bannon spoke about the hopes and aspirations of people in Longford. The target of 1,600 jobs was to rely too much on one particular industry. However, I thought the Tánaiste did well this morning when she said her piece.
