Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

Senator Bradford, who comes from Fermoy, raised BUPA's decision to quit Ireland on several occasions last term, and I fully understand his great desire for clarity regarding whether Quinn Direct will be able to proceed and whether there will be community rating. He wants to know the view of the Health Insurance Authority. We should have that clarity now, since I hope the felicitations and joy are not short-lived and that those insured with BUPA Ireland will retain their rights, with Quinn Direct authorised to proceed, no matter who is Mr. Quinn's friend.
