I support Senator Mary White in what she said about suicide, especially as it refers to widows and widowers. In my experience that group is very vulnerable. There are many examples of what might happen if appropriate action is not taken by relatives and concerned members of the community, especially neighbours. A visit to those people at this time of year or at any time of year is of particular benefit.

I wish the people of Kenmare and Kerry in general the very best of luck. If they get their hospital I will not begrudge it to them. However, I am already on record in this House as saying I am far from happy with the manner in which the Midland Regional Hospital Mullingar is being treated. The people of Mullingar and those in the rest of Westmeath and Longford will not take it lying down.
