Defence discipline Bill
Seán Ó Fearghaíl asks about the delayed Defence (Amendment) (Discipline) Bill and medical-card legislation; the Taoiseach promises the defence Bill for next year and says medical cards will be restored administratively.
No doubt yesterday’s flying visit by the Taoiseach to Lebanon was appreciated.
Comment on this
Where stands the defence (amendment) (discipline) Bill 2013 that has been promised for some time? To follow up on points raised by my party leader, Deputy Martin, in respect of the Government’s announcement today about discretionary medical cards, does the Taoiseach envisage any legislation on medical cards being brought before the House in the near future?
