Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick East, Labour)

I understand that legislation will be required to give effect to the reduction in fees paid to doctors, dentists and pharmacists announced by the Taoiseach yesterday. Is that the case and, if so, when will such legislation be introduced? Will the very generous deal agreed with hospital consultants be revisited, particularly in the context of the fact that those in the health services who are on the minimum wage are going to be affected?
