Medical Cards: Motion (Resumed)
7:00 pm
M J Nolan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fianna Fail)
We cannot isolate ourselves from what is going on globally. Let us get that straight. Those opposite are going to have to recognise that as much as we are.
Funding should be put into primary care where we are getting best value for it. If the Minister can negotiate, agree and approve the proposal next week whereby one fee will be charged for all medical cards, irrespective of the age of the holder, we will be going a long way towards ensuring we have a better health service.
