Last night, Mr Boucher issued a statement saying that he was sensitive to the current comment and debate about his pension arrangements and that he had decided to waive his option to retire on pension at age 55. This means that the requirement to make the payment by the bank to the pension fund no longer exists. I welcome Mr Boucher's decision. ^^ Medical Cards. ^^

I wish to advise the Deputy that due to industrial action affecting the Health Service Executive it is not possible for the Executive to supply the information requested. If this matter remains of continuing concern to you, however, I would invite you to raise it with me again in due course.
