John Paul Phelan (Fine Gael)

Will the Leader ensure that the e-mail facility that has been put in place by the Department of Health and Children in respect of reimbursing people who were overcharged in publicly-funded nursing homes is in full working order? I have contacted the Department on a number of occasions in respect of representations I received and been told to submit the details of those representations by e-mail. Up to 6 p.m. yesterday, the facility to which I refer was not working. That is not acceptable.
