Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

That is most certainly what is required. The Minister spoke about the Get Rare Aware campaign. It comes back to the same question about the timeline for these people being in place. Where exactly will they all be based? What will be the capacity for genetic testing? The crux of the matter is when this new plan will be in play, when the people will be in position and what the timelines for testing and diagnosis will be, given that some of these conditions can be very rare. The sooner the intervention can be made, the better. It is obviously vital for those people and their families. Can the Minister give me an answer on that?
