He ranted but we are well used to it at this stage. I welcome the newly-appointed Minister of State, Deputy Alex White, to the House. He is a gentleman I do not know well, except by reputation, and the reputation is strong. His work as Chairman of the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform certainly received a number of plaudits and I am sure the members of that committee are disappointed he is moving on. However, the Government is delighted that a steady, safe, strong, competent, capable and deliverable pair of hands is taking over the realms of primary care.
