Tomorrow we will all collectively celebrate Daffodil Day and we will support the Irish Cancer Society. I see many Members across the House donning the daffodil today. In Galway last year, 1,332 people were diagnosed with cancer and in 2024, sadly, 531 people died at the hands of this disease. One thing we in this House can do is try to alleviate some of the pressures people face when they are battling cancer. I want to ask a very simple question. Has this Government any plans to tackle the financial burdens that arise when somebody is diagnosed with cancer? What are the Government's plans to deal with same?

I thank Deputy Dolan very much. I appreciate him raising this issue today as Daffodil Day is tomorrow and this House will not be in session. I am meeting the Irish Cancer Society this afternoon. I am sure this is one of the issues that it will want to discuss too. I do not want to pre-empt what the Government may do in future budgets. Deputy Dolan would give out to me at an Oireachtas committee if we did that. We do need to look at this. Thankfully, people are living longer and cancer survivorship is increasing, but there are real burdens that go with cancer in terms of lost income and pressures on the family as well. This Government has a proud record of supporting the development of cancer services, but how we can do more to support people as they are on their cancer journey is something I am eager to explore with the Deputy and with the Irish Cancer Society. I will meet it today and I am happy to report back to the Deputy after that.
