Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2003: Committee and Remaining Stages.
10:30 am
Frank Feighan (Fine Gael)
I congratulate the Minister on the Bill and thank the staff who put the Bill together. It was not a contentious Bill. I did not realise it involved community rating or risk equalisation.
I was pleased to see that the World Health Organisation praised our health insurance system as one of the three best in the world. It is the nearest to best solution we can get.
