John Halligan
Ceist:459. Deputy John Halligan asked the Minister for Health in view of the fact that there is an automatic entitlement to medical cards where the applicant and their family are solely dependent on social welfare payments, his views that it is fair and just that where an adjustment has been made to a social protection payment due to a means assessment, that this would in turn preclude them from their entitlement to a medical card even though their income remains the same, as it would be, were they solely in receipt of a social protection payment in respect of persons (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter.
