Maurice Cummins (Fine Gael)

Senator Mullins asked about moneylenders. They should be regulated. The discussion on moneylenders can be taken in conjunction with a debate on banking. We all realise that many people are in grave difficulties at present. Going to moneylenders will not solve the problem for many people but some are forced to go to such lengths.

Senator Colm Burke had a question on junior doctors that he raised with the Minister responsible previously and I will continue to raise the matter with him.

Senator Ó Clochartaigh raised the question of the plight of people with disabilities. The centres of independent living gave a presentation in the AV room here yesterday. I will arrange for a debate. We have had a debate on disabilities but I am sure that the Minister responsible will be willing to come to the House again.
