Summary
Desmond sought a debate on the Midland Health Board’s charges for hospital-service-card applications, appeals and certain benefit and drug-refund matters. The Ceann Comhairle said he would communicate with him.
I wish to raise on the Adjournment the extraordinary decision by the Midland Health Board not to comply with the regulations and guidelines issued by the Minister for Health in relation to the introduction by that board of the £10 charge for applications for hospital services cards, the £10 charge in relation to appeals against decisions relating to medical cards, the SWA and DPMA allowances and the £5 charge in relation to refunds of drugs over £28.
