I concur with Senator O'Brien on the removal of transport services from the HSE. Senator Healy Eames also referred to the matter and I hope she will now take action in this regard. It is the responsibility of Government Senators to do what we did in the past and preserve these services. These services were provided for dialysis and cancer patients in the west and all of a sudden the HSE has now cancelled it. Those on the other side of the House have enormous responsibility and I hope they take it seriously. They should speak to the Minister, Deputy Reilly. Even though he abolished the HSE board, the HSE is still in existence.
