Pearse Doherty (SF), Donegal

We are talking about life-changing drugs that can save the lives of people with rare diseases and cancer. There is great frustration. Will the Tánaiste ensure multiannual funding is allocated to provide a clear and predictable budget for the HSE to manage a continuous supply of new medicines? Will he also ensure the issue of staff capacity is addressed? It was pointed out to the Government last year and it has still not done anything about it. The staffing level has not been increased.
