To ask the Minister for Health the extent to which he and his Department has monitored private health insurance costs; if any particular reason has been identified for increases in such premiums; if he is satisfied that the principle of community rating continues to exist; if private health insurance costs increases have been associated with any particular section in the health service; if particular changes are envisaged which might go some way towards stabilising private health insurance costs in general; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
