Free GP care and universal healthcare
The Leader says free GP care will be introduced during the Government’s term, but disputes that universal health insurance was promised in its manifesto.
I am sure he will be an excellent Minister of State and will come to the House early in the new session, if not before it.
Senator David Cullinane raised the question of free GP care. I can assure the Senator that is far from being abolished and that we will have free GP care before the end of this Government. He can quote me on that if I am wrong. With regard to universal health care, the Government never said it would introduce universal health care in this term.

The Senator should read the manifesto. When the Senator speaks he should know what he is speaking about.

I have told the Senator what the Government said. I ask the Senator to read it again. I ask the Senator to speak correctly when he comes in here and quote it correctly.

Even when the sun is shining, Sinn Féin is negative.
