It is a very quick question for the Taoiseach on the medical card review. I am aware there was a report in 2014 around the expert panel and medical card eligibility. Will the review take place soon on the system of discretionary medical cards and the remit for those who have a terminal illness or who have cancer? People who do not have a terminal illness are finding it very difficult to get a medical card in the context of costs and so on.
