I thank the Minister of State for that response. We all unfortunately know of people who have suffered bereavements. As I said, it is heartbreaking for families because it happens so suddenly, particularly in young adults. The awareness is not just in that person but in his or her cohort. Their friends might say there is something wrong and it is serious and this person needs help. It can happen, and hours can be critical in diseases like this. I would certainly welcome if the Minister of State could take the issue of Act for Meningitis up with the relevant section in her Department. As I said, it has an office in the Ballybane area in Galway city. I would appreciate if she could get back to me regarding a sustainable source of funding if that is possible. The organisation does valuable work across the country.
