This is hard to take. Deputy Micheál Martin, who created the ineffectual monster that is the HSE, is now one of the main protagonists calling for the resignation of the Minister for Health.

Is the Senator reading puff from her party's press office? All her party members seem to be on message about this.

Senator Noone, without interruption.

How rich is it that Deputy Martin is calling for the Minister's resignation?

Has the Senator a question for the Leader?

I will get to my question momentarily. Fianna Fáil is claiming all sorts this week and creating hysteria about medical cards. This the same party with the same faces and voices who tried to take them away a few years ago. It is hard to take all of this on a continual basis.

I am terribly sorry. The Senator might give me a copy of her note from the press office when she finishes.
