I propose to take Questions Nos. 115 and 132 together.
As the Health Service Executive has the operational and funding responsibility for medical card benefits, it is the appropriate body to consider the case raised by the Deputy. My Department has therefore asked the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to address this matter and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
