You are obviously using statistics provided by the Irish government.
They are about as reliable are their GDP figures.
True.. Probably more reliable source than Irish local councils though.

Fire Service Charges
www.corkcoco.ie
When to visit an injury unit
Injury units treat recent injuries that are not life-threatening. For example, broken bones, dislocations, and burns.

Outpatient and A&E charges
Charges for people attending hospital emergency departments (€100) and Minor Injury Units (€75)
would not be changed by the proposed legislation.
So Notch's comment that they were all scrapped is incorrect.

Preferential treatment to those who pay is mandatory.
So it's a locally determined charge.Fire Service Charges

Not a blanket charge and not a universal charge.
Morover there are clearly protections to prevent such charges causing homelessness.

Vinty was not telling porkies.. It's appropriate to apologise when you wrongly accuse someone of lying.
That was my point..
I don't care about your swivelling and swerving to argue irrelevant details

I didn't accuse Vinty of lying. It's disingenuine of you to suggest I did.
I'm not siwveling and swervng, I'm accusing you of presenting information in such a way that it appears to support your misinterpreted opinion.
The fire sevice charges are locally determined charges. They're not universal, they're not a blanket imposition and they're not peculiar to Ireland.
The hospital charges have so many exemptions and waivers that I'm not sure it's worth maintaining an admin system to process them.
In addition there's no evidence to support the claim that these charges cause homelessnes.

statistica says over 30% citizens have a medical card
under 16s dont pay
if you are referred by GP you dont pay
so a figure of 40% is around the right ballpark
so you are being dishonest
not all payNot what the news and council websites are saying

It would be easier and more accurate to say that it is possible to incur charges, IF you don't qualify for free.
What caused that then, is it globalists or agent 30 or was it aliens sucking up refugees and transferring to Dublin by the mothership
