Senator Murnane O'Connor referred to the issue of waiting lists and sixth class vision screening. She said that some people have to wait for more than three months. She also mentioned that the National Treatment Purchase Fund, NTPF, has been very encouraging. We again might bring in the Minister so that we could discuss this matter. It could also be an issue for an Commencement matter debate and the Cathaoirleach might be kind enough to accept it for next week. As I mentioned, Senator Colm Burke outlined the various issues regarding the public sector. I come from a business and self-employment background. An eye has to be kept peeled in business. If the overheads are more than what is being taken in, then that business is in trouble. The country and the economy are going extremely well but we need to keep an eye on it and check that all is well. That could be another debate we might have. I thank the Cathaoirleach.
