Summary of this debate

Auto-generated

I move: That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to amend the Health Insurance Act 1994 (as amended) to introduce a new definition of a health insurance contract to that contained in Section 2 of the Principal Act so as to exclude international students who are not ordinarily resident in Ireland; and to provide for related matters. When is it proposed to take Second Stage?
