I support my colleagues who have referred to the Lisbon treaty. We look forward to the outcome on 2 October.
I indicate my solidarity with older people in our communities and convey our condolences to the Barry family in Waterford and other families who have experienced bereavement or loss. I call on the Leader of the House to seek a review of supports and services available to older people in the community to ensure there are adequate safeguards in place and a review of sentencing for any criminal action against older people. There are a host of services and supports, including home help, housing aid, meals on wheels, personal care packages-----
