Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 4 November 2008
199 Deputy Terence Flanagan asked the Minister for Health and Children the reason a person (details supplied) in Dublin 22 on permanent medication had their long-standing medical card stopped and replaced with a general practitioner only card. [37842/08]
View answerAs the Health Service Executive has the operational and funding responsibility for the medical card benefit, it is the appropriate body to consider the particular case raised by the Deputy. My Department has therefore requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to address this matter and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
