I also wish the Taoiseach well in his discussions in Downing Street tomorrow.

Will primary legislation be necessary to implement the yellow pack medical cards? If so, when will that legislation be brought before the House? Is the interpretation placed at the weekend on the Taoiseach's denunciation of the Aer Lingus management correct, that the Government has reversed direction and will retain Aer Lingus in public ownership?
