589. To ask the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the numbers of persons whose medical cards have been replaced by general practitioner cards who cannot afford to purchase their medication; if he will provide a breakdown of the number of persons whose medical cards have been replaced by GP only cards; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have asked the Health Service Executive for a report on the issues raised by the Deputy. I will revert to the Deputy on the matter as soon as possible.
