Fr. Reid graciously withdrew those comments. The President and now Fr. Reid have made such comments; this type of inflated language should stop.

Will the Acting Leader determine the exact status of the Health and Social Care Professionals Bill 2004, which I understand has not been enacted? Would it be possible to amend the Bill to include chiropractors in its provisions, as they meet the five criteria listed? The public is unprotected as people who are not qualified despite universal qualifications existing throughout Europe can establish themselves as chiropractors and do serious damage.

Will the Acting Leader arrange a debate on the people involved in the Shot at Dawn Campaign? A total of 26 young Irish soldiers who volunteered during the First World War were shot at dawn for rebellion or insubordination simply for not wearing filthy, wet hats in the trenches while they were suffering from shell shock. New Zealand has publicly exonerated its six soldiers treated in this way and awarded the medals their sacrifices deserve. Is the Government pressing this matter?
