I am looking for a debate and thank the Leas-Chathaoirleach for his assistance in that regard. When the Minister for Health was here yesterday - I took note of the time; it was 4.15 p.m. - he said there had been no cuts to home helps or carers. If the Minister is of that view, the Government is totally detached from the reality on the ground because we are inundated with calls from people who are so distressed due to the level of cuts in home helps and carers. We need to resolve this matter.
