Dáil
‹ Order of Business Cystic fibrosis patient advocacy
Summary
Catherine Murphy welcomes the planned Beaumont cystic fibrosis unit and asks that information on patient advocacy be shared with the Dáil; the Tánaiste agrees.
I welcome the programme for Government's inclusion of the opening of the cystic fibrosis unit in Beaumont Hospital. It has already been built and just needs to be staffed and so on, but the key aim is to try to keep people out of hospital. I refer to the drug Orkambi. Will the Tánaiste share the information on patient advocacy with the Dáil instead of just Deputy Micheál Martin?
