I thank the Minister for his reply. I was glad to hear him say that the door is not closed. However, time is of the essence. The conduct of the pharmaceutical company is despicable in this regard. I urge the Minister to use his good offices to ask the HSE to engage with urgency on this and come to a positive conclusion with urgency. People's lives are at risk here and we must help them if we can at all.
