Deputy John Lahart asked the Minister for Health her views on the recent reduction in funding for a company (details supplied); if she is aware that discontinuing the twelve-week introductory programme for new members has significantly reduced accessibility; if she will give consideration to restoring funding to ensure affordability for older participants, given that current costs are prohibitive; if private health insurance typically covers the programmes, given members report they are not reimbursed; and her views that the company provides an important social outlet for participants, helping to combat isolation among those living with chronic illness; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
