Mattie McGrath (IND), Tipperary

I agree. I also want to register my concerns for the readiness for the fishing industry and the serious losses that will impact it, as well as connectivity with Europe and the cross-border health directive. We need a debate on these. We are being held on a string with the EU cross-border health directive. Thousands have travelled to use health services but we understand the scheme will now be handed back to the HSE, which failed the people in the first instance.
We need to debate those issues in the Parliament this week or certainly on this side of Christmas. After that, it is into January. Then it will be all out the gap and at the mercy of the waves. We need a debate on those issues.
