We now move to Deputies carried over from last Thursday. I call Deputy O'Reilly.

Reports in the media at the weekend and replies to parliamentary questions I tabled indicate that the Government has switched off the funding for the maternity strategy. Can the Tánaiste, please, advise whether additional funding will be made available? If it will not, as has been indicated in responses to my parliamentary questions and by Mr. Paul Cullen in The Irish Times, what elements of the maternity strategy will be sidelined? Women have the right to know. We were promised access to anomaly scans on all maternity sites, but we know that is now only possible on 14 sites. What elements of the maternity strategy will be paused? Women have the right to know.

I suggest that that is a question for the Minister for Health, Deputy Harris, who could provide the Deputy with a much more detailed answer than I can. I will certainly raise the issue with him and ask him to respond directly to the Deputy.
