Violet-Anne Wynne: I put it to the Tánaiste that 27% of those who are hospitalised for eating disorders, which is the deadliest mental illness, were in hospitals with no eating disorder trained staff and 83% had no access to a therapist or a psychiatrist after their discharge. Is it any wonder that 41% would be re-admitted for the same problem within two years? Last week we heard from a number of...

Pauline Tully: I have raised the issue of the provision of insulin pump therapy for paediatric diabetic patients in Cavan and Monaghan a number of times.

My numbers may be slightly incorrect but these have gone from two to 11. We are, of course, seeking national coverage. Where there...

Micheál Martin: With regard to the NAS industrial action, efforts have been ongoing right throughout June on this. I am happy to say that following continued discussion between all parties through the day, I understand that SIPTU has confirmed the strike committee has suspended industrial action - this may be an older note, however - to take part in a facilitated engagement. My understanding as of this...

Brian Stanley: I raise recycling and bin collections. The deposit return scheme has come in and the good people of the State are, by and large, doing the right thing with plastic bottles and cans. I support the scheme and use it but because less stuff is going into recycling bins, the private companies that collect waste are now charging us for that. We are charged for the levy on plastic bottles and...
