Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 4 April 2006
165 Mr. Deasy asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Health and Children when the Health (Repayment Scheme) Bill 2006 will be debated in Dáil Éireann; her plans to have the Bill passed by the Dáil and Seanad before the summer recess; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [12837/06]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Health (Repayment Scheme) Bill 2006 was published on 16 March 2006 and the Second Stage reading of the Bill commenced in the Dáil on 30 March 2006. The Second Stage of this Bill is due to resume in the Dáil on 27 April 2006. It is my wish that the important legislative proposals contained in the Bill have a speedy passage through the Oireachtas prior to the summer recess. This will enable the implementation of the scheme to ensure the repayments can be made swiftly to those eligible for repayment, following the completion of an uncomplicated application process.
