I am absolutely certain the public dimension with regard to private health insurance cannot be left out. We are speaking about private health insurance and amending the substantive legislation through the Bill, but entire areas are not being addressed where public moneys support in a major way the private practice element of the day's work of doctors and consultants throughout our hospital sites. Will the Minister offer a view on this? Should we not ensure those who are privately, and more speedily, accessed look at the holistic in the round cost of providing this exceptional access?
