Fine Gael meeting on health

A public meeting organised by Fine Gael for Thursday night next in Keadeen Hotel will be part of the party's ongoing consultations on how to fix the health services.

Registration will begin at 8pm. At 8.30pm there will be some brief presentations from the Fine Gael team followed by an open forum session.

The meeting will be attended by Fine Gael Party Leader, Enda Kenny TD.,Fine Gael Spokesperson for Health and Children, Dr James Reilly TD and Senator Frances Fitzgerald.

The purpose of the event will be to outline the Fine Gael approach to fixing the health service and to introduce Universal Health Insurance for all. The organisers hope to hear the views and ideas of local patients, people and health service staff on how to improve the health services.

The discussion and ideas generated will be fed into Fine Gael’s health strategy.
