Michael McNamara (IND), Clare

Last week, we heard the chilling words of Aoife Johnston's mother, "we told her she would be looked after, but she wasn't. We told her she was in the best place". That has destroyed what little confidence there was in the mid-west in the accident and emergency unit. We are good at addressing the injustices of 40 or 50 years ago in this House. That is absolutely necessary and I commend the Taoiseach on it. However, we need to deal with the injustices and failings of the State today. Can we find time to discuss the accident and emergency unit in University Hospital Limerick, UHL, and what the Government will do to restore confidence in that vital State facility?
