Order of Business

James Reilly (Dublin North, Fine Gael)
We are passing legislation on climate change and other issues, yet there is an indemnity Bill in the hands of the Government, which I put forward and which was agreed by the Minister for Health and Children, that would protect patients against rogue doctors who would practice in this country without insurance. It is a simple Bill. It confers protection on patients. There are only a few doctors involved, as the vast majority of doctors in this country are insured. This is for the rogues, because one doctor can do a lot of damage.
