Éamon Ó Cuív (FF), Galway West

It was announced in the budget that the income limits for medical card eligibility for people over 70 would be increased to €550 from €500 for single people and to €1,050 from €900 for couples. Will the Tánaiste tell me when legislative effect will be given to this decision? It was meant to be introduced in July and we are already in July.
