Ms Laverne McGuinness:

It is the date set. We have just completed the full exercise of the matter. It is important to point out that with effect from July 2011, the time of centralisation of medical cards, there is an automatic withdrawal from GPs of medical cards for persons who are deceased based on an arrangement we have in place with the Central Publications Office and Registrar of Births and Deaths. It is the historical issue that we are addressing.
