Deputy Jan O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Health if he will consider allowing persons in the 66 to 70 years of age bracket to discount the cost of medical insurance against their income in assessing their qualification for a medical card, particularly in view of the significant difference between the means test for that age category and those over 70 years of age; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
