As the Deputy is aware, I set up a Haemochromotosis Working Group in March 2006 to examine all of the issues relating to haemochromotosis in Ireland and to advise on the actions necessary to address the problems caused by haemochromotosis.

The Working Group has met formally on three occasions and held a number of other informal sub-group meetings. The Group will present its report to me in the coming weeks.
