Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2003: Second Stage.
10:30 am
Camillus Glynn (Fianna Fail)
Tá fáilte roimh an Aire don Teach. Bille an-ghairid é seo ach an-tábhachtach ag an am céanna.
I welcome the Minister. This is a short, but important Bill which meets the demands of those who preach social inclusion. The concept of risk equalisation as contained in the Bill amounts to social inclusion in practice. It will ensure that one section of the community, that comprised by older people, will be treated in a fair manner.
