Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I thank Deputy Stanton for raising this matter. As he points out, a tick bite can cause Lyme disease, which can be a very severe illness. People are probably not as aware as they might be about the risks. I will check with the HSE but I believe some work is under way involving the HSE and the National Parks and Wildlife Service to make people aware of the risks.
