FINANCIAL RESOLUTION No. 14: INCOME LEVY
9:00 am
Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Independent)
The medical card should be for medical needs and it has become a passport for school transport and many other things. We need to decouple it. One of the reforms being examined is to have a higher element of medical need attached to the medical card rather than the pure income which is not always fair.
