Faroese ministers to face questions on drug treatment access

Prime Minister Beinir Johannesen and Health Minister Eyðdis Hartmann Niclasen will answer questions about access to drug treatment on the radio programme Breddin, KVF reports.

The programme will focus on Leivur, who wants to live but is finding it difficult to get treatment and the kind of support he and others like him need. The ministers will be asked, among other things, when such an offer will become available.

Breddin will also discuss the US midterm elections. A political commentator will consider what the Democrats’ victories in both the House of Representatives and the Senate mean for the country’s future and the rest of the world. The programme is scheduled for 10am.
