Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2007: Second Stage

 

6:00 pm

Fergal Browne (Fine Gael)

The Minister might give way. This legislation reminds me of the nursing homes fiasco, where legislation was rushed through the House and ended up being referred to the Supreme Court. If, with us having passed a motion for earlier signature, the President were to refuse to sign the legislation, what would happen? Would it be complete chaos? She has done so in the past on health legislation.
