Denis Naughten (Roscommon-Galway, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I do not know who will be sitting in my seat this time next year. If the people of Roscommon-Galway decide to send me back in here, I will be putting this amendment down again if the issue is not addressed. I will not be as generous on that occasion. While things in this House change and Ministers and Deputies change, if I am lucky enough to be here this time next year, I will be putting this forward unless the change is brought about. It is wrong and unfair. It is undermining the principle of community rating and stated health policy, which is about bringing more work into the local hospitals and ensuring that as many patients as possible use those injury units, rather than ending up in accident and emergency departments for hours and hours.
