Council Regulation on Procedures for amending the Sirene Manual: Referral to Joint Committee. - Health Service Reform: Statements (Resumed).

 

I also want to address the question of equity. When we, as a State, made a decision to provide a free health service to anybody over 70, irrespective of their means, it was admirable. It means, however, that some of that money, which now goes to the well off who can afford to pay for health care, could have been used for those who are in need of it.
