This has gone on throughout the country.

Senator Keane raised the matter of the One Young World summit, which will be held in Dublin next year. We would like to compliment all the organisers on that. I will get the details on that from Senator Keane after the Order of Business. Senator Conway spoke of hospital groupings. We had a very comprehensive discussion with the Minister last week on the issue of hospital groupings and services. I agree with the Senator that the HSE should clarify the issues he has raised and I am sure it will.

Senator Mullins also raised the issue of sentencing and the publication of the report referred to yesterday in a response to Deputy Flanagan. I have commented on that. Senator Noone spoke about roaming charges and their proposed elimination. An end to these exorbitant charges would be welcomed by all as they have been a problem not just for tourists but for businesses and other sectors. The sooner they are abolished, the better for all involved.
