Michael Ring
Question:222 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children if he will introduce legislation to increase the fees paid to people who are not permanent and pensionable employees of the health boards and who derive their incomes from fees for registrations and issuing birth, death and marriage certificates, as set out in S.I. No. 278 of 1987 and S.I. 234 of 1987, particularly in view of the fact that their workload has increased since the introduction of the Stillbirths Registration Act, 1994, and the notification of intention to marry under the Family Law Act, 1995, and in view of the fact that a review of fees was promised some time ago.
