On the smaller issues, I remember when this first came to my attention back in 2014, there was a scenario where, for instance, the cost of bandages was not covered by the medical card scheme. I set up a meeting at the time with the medical card people and they are agreed to include it. It was a very big issue at the time for parents but are there smaller issues that could be dealt with immediately where the support that should be there is not there?
