I accept that people who suffer from lupus and those who suffer from other conditions would make the case to be included under the scheme. In an ideal world, we could do that but the policy we have decided on is to pursue free universal access to GP care. As I said, we cannot do everything. However, the Senator raised the issue of information being made available. I will check that with the HSE and revert to him on that point.
