Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2024-10-23
============================================================

Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

I am very much loath to give a figure because there may be pharmacists who would perhaps have agreed to go below that figure and who would then say that because I have said X, that is where they will go to. Just as it is now for private patients, it is a matter for pharmacists themselves to decide. I fully understand the Deputy's questions because I asked exactly the same ones as we were teasing this out.
