Public Accounts Committee

Vote Management and Budgetary Situation in 2012: Discussion with Department of Health and HSE

6:00 pm

Ms Laverne McGuinness:

We can get that specific information for the Deputy. It varies from time to time because medical cards are reviewed - some of them after five years and some of them after three years depending on the circumstances of the particular applicant. The longer periods of time are extended to people who have a long-term illnesses and so forth. We can come back to the committee with that specific information.
