Your questions answered by
DOMINIC COYLE?
Why put children on private health insurance??
What are a advantages of carrying private health word for children given that all childrens hospitals are public. Does carrying word for a children impact on choice and speed of access??
Also, notwithstanding a fact that a sanatorium is public, are there charges we could be compulsory to compensate directly if a child has to spend time in sanatorium and we had conjunction private word for them or a medical card.?
- Ms J.O?R., Dublin?
AS YOU have guessed yourself, a value in carrying private medical word for children comes down to choice and speed.
You are utterly right that children?s sanatorium beds are all in open wards, solely for quarantine purposes. Therefore, carrying private sanatorium cover will not make any disproportion to a accommodation supposing if your child is detrimental adequate to have to be certified to hospital.
However, private health word can positively make a disproportion in terms of a volume of time we will have to wait for a outpatient?s consultation. With insurance, we will generally get entrance to a consultant in weeks; on a HSE watchful list, it could be months or longer.
Equally, while a open complement will support for strident and puncture care, if we are looking for elective procedures on seductiveness of your child, that will not be lonesome unless we have insurance, and positively not a as quickly.
It is for all these reasons that , in a aged days, when we simply had VHI skeleton A-E, a recommendation was that we put children no aloft than Plan B since there simply was no serve advantage to them adult a chain.
Revenue and a pierce to taxation State pensions?
Would we know what a stream process of Revenue is in propinquity to a outcry after Christmas as a outcome of a barbarous letters to OAPs. Has it been motionless to (a) forget a whole thing, (b) start fatiguing state pensioners who also have occupational pensions from now on ? i.e. Jan 12th, or (c) go behind to when these pensions should have been announced and taxed? I?m certain many OAPs wish to know though are aroused of coming Revenue.?
- Mr J.O?B., Kildare?
I AM certain they do, and are. As distant as we am aware, there has been no change of process during a Revenue even if there is some fluster during a rather ham-fisted approach they approached people in a initial place.
There is positively no probability of them simply ?forgetting about it?. There is an ongoing taxation guilt here and it would be essentially astray of Revenue to concede some people to get divided though profitable their taxes when others must. In any case, they would attract a madness of a Comptroller Auditor General (the State spending watchdog) if they were to do so.
So (a) is out, (b) is positively true. Revenue now has sum of people in receipt of State pensions, some of whom unsuccessful to discuss this themselves in their exchange with a taxation authorities.
They can design that, from here on, they will be taxed on a basement of their sum income ? as it should be.
The emanate that is rather some-more capricious is your choice (c) ? either Revenue will pursue those people who should have been profitable taxation on their State pensions since of their other income ? from occupational pensions, dividends, directors? fees or whatever.
Revenue have delicately done no matter on this, nor are they expected to. However, it seems expected ? and prior knowledge would seem to indicate to ? Revenue will not pursue people overdue comparatively tiny amounts since a cost of chasing them would be some-more than any taxation income recovered. This is generally so where disaster to forewarn Revenue of their income seems unconsidered ? i.e. people on PAYE who insincere that, as in their operative life, Revenue was told by others of their liability.
However, a taxation authorities will positively haven a right to pursue for behind remuneration ? and penalties ? people they trust deliberately funded information in sequence to equivocate taxation liabilities.
It is expected that anyone with an superb guilt who approaches a Revenue willingly will face a taxation bill. Of course, those unwell to ?front up? could face seductiveness and penalties on tip of a strange liability.
What chance do we have if an app goes wrong?
How do we get a reinstate on an iPhone app? The new Bridgestone 100 Best Restaurants v1.0 that cost ?6.99 does not work.?
- Ms A.M., Dublin?
Problems with apps are one of a perils of a increasingly connected world, with smartphones now whole in Irish homes.
In general, to be fair, apps work sincerely reliably ? even if there stays some regard about confidence and information remoteness issues ? as evidenced by a Twitter, that among others, was cited final week as downloading people?s whole smartphone hit lists and gripping them when users suspicion they were simply accessing them on a phone.
I can?t contend either there is or is not a problem with a Bridgestone 100 Best Restaurants app but, as with many things, your track to compensation is behind by a retailer, in this case, a iTunes store.
If we record into your iTunes comment and entrance your squeeze history, we will see a symbol that allows we to ?report a problem? with your app.
If they do not get behind to you, there is also a trickery on a website to news problems.
