36.89% of the national population were covered by medical cards as at 1st August 2011. The other information sought by the Deputy is not provided by the HSE to my Department as a matter of routine. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to address these matters and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
