Medical Cards.
3:00 pm
Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Progressive Democrats)
The Deputy asked me a question. This legislation was drafted by my officials with the help of the Office of the Attorney General and the Attorney General in person. Therefore, we sought to be as reasonable as possible. My desire would have been to have left the card but I was strongly advised that for equality and legal reasons, we were not in a position to do so.
