Mary Butler (FF), Waterford

Excuse me. Legionnaires' disease is very serious. In consultation with public health, a water-quality committee meeting was convened and a plan was immediately put in place to urgently address the situation. This included the implementation of immediate control measures. These measures can only be addressed, and the immediate risk can only be removed, when all the residents vacate the premises. I cannot ignore HIQA or public health, and I will not ignore the HSE. These residents have to be kept safe.
