Will the Minister of State reflect on any of the points I made in my opening comments about the thousands of people who have had medical cards withdrawn and who have not ticked a box in the criteria as set out for the restoration process? What about those who applied for discretionary cards during the period when the same criteria were employed by the primary care reimbursement service and were refused medical cards? They have not ticked the boxes for the three points of consideration for the restoration of cards. What about reimbursing individuals and families?
