Public Accounts Committee

2012 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 22 - Eligibility for Medical Cards

12:30 pm

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

I cannot give the Deputy a detailed answer with regard to that particular case, but I can say that for the first time in the health system we now have a national director for social care which includes disability. I will ask my colleague, Pat Healy, to make contact with the Deputy to establish the situation to which she refers.
