I thank the Minister of State for her reply, which I will relay to the family. I know that she has experience of the system. In fairness to the staff of Crumlin hospital, I know they are under pressure. However, this family is deeply upset at the delay in the provision of treatment for their son. I ask the Minister of State to relay to the Minister, Deputy Harris, that no child or cancer patient should be left waiting for chemotherapy or any other type of treatment. I will also contact him to ensure he is aware of the urgency in this regard, not only for the Bolger family but all families.
