Dáil group’s chairman criticises access to fast food, but lack of access to cancer screening

A call has been made for the Government to reconsider its priorities as comparisons were made in the Dáil between the public’s access to fast food but lack of access to cancer screening.

Mr Harris said he wanted to restart screening but to do it in a safe way and the HSE care plan for non-coronarvirus cases would be ready in two weeks. Mr Harris who remarked to Mr McNamara, “you wouldn’t be in any way flippant in relation to this” said he did not have a responsibility for McDonald’s “but I do have a responsibility for the safety of the health service the safety of staff and for the women and men of Ireland”.

“And I would urge you Minister to look at priorities because sometimes they don’t seem to make sense to ordinary people across this land.”
