Niall speaks to Co Leader of the Social Democrats about her party’s call to cut the cost of cancer

Calls were made by the Social Democrats in the Dáil today for the HSE to abandon its practice of sending in debt collectors to collect overdue fees from cancer patients and others. Roisin Shortall says "it is absolutely shocking" and she joins Niall on air now.

Danielle is talking to Niall. She has an auto immune disease. She was on the PUP last year and because of this her medical card was taken off her because she just 4 euro over the threshold. She has just got off the phone to debt collectors because she owes them over €400
