May I start off by saying I am no expert , but I can not see how sending a ship full of our sick people will help the people of Haiti.
Then again maby Enda knows something that we don`t & they are buying a brand new shiny one now that the recession is over.What do you mean abandon ship
Are they taking requests?

I'm baffled myself. I don't know where he got the idea.
Deputy Enda Kenny: I agree to this and I commend the Government on its contribution to date to the catastrophe in Haiti. I will not have time to speak on the debate, so I would like to a make a point now. We have a Naval Service vessel that is a fully equipped hospital ship. There are medics and doctors queuing up to give of their time free of charge to assist in this catastrophe. I request the Tánaiste to see to it that this ship is made ready and sails for Haiti. It is a fully equipped hospital ship and could do enormous beneficial work offshore, just as other countries are doing during this tragedy. As it will be located offshore, it will be immune from earthquakes, and doctors and nurses in this country are more than willing to stay on that ship and carry out essential operations for those who have been devastated by the earthquake. It would represent an invaluable contribution from the Government and I will support it wholeheartedly if it commits to it
I understand people in Haulbowline are currently searching the island to see where this ship has gone.....Last edited by Goldie fish; 22 January 2010, 13:34.
Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing.

You Navy guys and your secrets-
I am sure I saw it in Janes or such like
the Irish Defence Forces have a stealth hospital ship
it is not capable of being seen either on radar or in the flesh
the stealth technology is so good that even its crew is invisible-
Or maybe he is talking about a Rib with 2 medics included.Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Don't put too much ridicule on poor Enda(there's only so much one man can take), our Tánaiste agreed with him that it would be a good idea to send our hospital ship.You will never have a quiet world until you knock the patriotism out of the human race
