Senator John Crown has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business, "That a debate with the Minister for Health to establish the exact time schedule for the making available of the drug Sovaldi for the treatment of hepatitis C be taken today." Is the amendment being pressed?

Comment on this

I understand the Minister may be downstairs and that I will have an opportunity to speak to him. Therefore, I will not press the amendment today.
