national / rights, freedoms and repression / event notice Wednesday January 23, 2008 10:34 by jan
Despite substantial additional spending and significant administrative change, the Irish health system remains in crisis. First proposed by the Labour Party in 2001, universal health insurance is increasingly being seen as the only way to achieve a better, more efficient and fairer health system.

Speakers will address the question as to how universal health insurance could be the answer to the seemingly intractable problems in Ireland’s health system, and how could it be implemented?
