Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Operation of the Medical Card Scheme: Discussion

Ms Kate Halliwell:

Working within the processes in the unit at the moment, the number of individual applications in the Irish language remains very low. We have three full-time equivalents who are fluent in Irish and can respond. However, as Mr. Flanagan has said, if there was an increase in Irish-language applications, there would be no problem increasing our capacity to suit.
