Vol. 566 No. 1
134 Mr. Rabbitte asked the Minister for Health and Children if he has received a request from the board of VHI for part privatisation of the company; if so, the response he has made; the Government's plans for the future of VHI; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12024/03]
The VHI board has indicated that, in principle, it favours being privatised and this has been noted in the context of the consideration to be given to VHI's future.
Ultimately, proposals by the Government for a change in VHI's corporate status will require legislation and will therefore arise for consideration and discussion in the Houses of the Oireachtas.
