Was the Minister aware of a criticism in relation to the lavish nature of the diary and other annual literature published this year by the bureau?

I was genuinely not aware of any such criticism.

Is the Minister not aware they produced this very lavish desk diary?

Not nearly as lavish as the Vocational Education Committee for County Dublin——

I was not aware that there was any element of criticism of that particular activity by the Health Education Bureau. I would have thought that it was a particularly desirable production because it is intended primarily for general practitioners. I would regard it as beneficial and advantageous that as many general practitioners as possible would use that diary and be constantly reminded of the desirability of impressing good health practices on their patients. It surprises me genuinely that the Deputy would criticise that particular activity.
