藍白立委日前強行三讀通過「老人福利法」第22條修正案,竟將弱勢長者相關補助法源刪除,將衝擊我國近14萬弱勢長者。經濟民主連合智庫召集人賴中強今日接受本報訪問痛批,藍白是以老人福利為名做了政治修法,居然把「中低收入老人」非健保補助涵蓋的醫療補助刪除,到底是故意做壞事?還是誤刪?國民黨團總召傅崐萁、民眾黨主席黃國昌應出來向社會大眾道歉。
衛福部社家署指出,現行「老福法」第22條適用對象約14萬人,條文要求地方政府提供弱勢長者「部分負擔費用」、「健保給付以外費用」相關補助;其中「健保給付以外費用」包括假牙補助,以及白內障手術使用的人工水晶體、心肌梗塞的心臟支架等需差額費用。若地方政府決定不再持續進行補助,白內障手術使用的人工水晶體等,可能都會受到影響。

賴中強指出,藍白這次是以老人福利為名做了政治修法,但修法結果居然把最需要保障的「中低收入老人」權益,即「健保部分負擔補助」及「非健保涵蓋範圍的醫療補助」兩個部分刪除了。
賴中強談及,民眾黨與國民黨先前的辯詞是,雖然在「老人福利法」刪除,但「社會救助法」與「健保法」仍有中低收入戶醫療補助的規定,這種講法其實是避重就輕。簡單來講,「社會救助法」和「健保法」有處理的是「低收入戶」與「中低收入戶」,沒有處理的是「中低收入老人」。
賴中強說明,低收入戶是指平均收入不到基本生活標準的1倍,中低收入戶則是指不到1.5倍。「老人福利法」子法另有「中低收入老人生活津貼」的規定,納入保障對象是「中低收入老人」,也就是收入在基本生活水準2.5倍以下者。
賴中強表示,因此,從涵蓋範圍來看,至少有一群收入介於基本生活標準1.5倍至2.5倍之間的人,不在「社會救助法」中低收入戶定義範圍內,但是屬於「老人福利法」無力負擔醫療費用的保障對象,這部分在藍白修正「老人福利法」後,是無法被「全民健保法」及「社會救助法」所涵蓋的弱勢。
賴中強質疑,你為什麼要刪?為什麼要把中低收入老人「健保部分負擔補助」及「非健保涵蓋範圍的醫療補助」刪除?完全沒有道理去刪,藍白到底是故意做壞事,還是誤刪?如果是誤刪,傅崐萁、黃國昌應該先道歉,而不是在那指責發現問題的人。
賴中強進一步說,衛福部已公開表示,正在釐清受影響的範圍有多大。從這件事也可看出,國民黨事實上是基於選舉考量,不斷掏空中央財政,把本來是地方政府負擔的甩鍋給中央,不是真正出於保障老人福利。
賴中強痛批,如果真的有心保障老人福利,不可能連這都誤刪或故意刪除。請問傅崐萁和黃國昌,你們到底是不是誤刪?誤刪的話,難道不該道歉?若是故意刪,你還能留在政壇嗎?
關於立法院修法程序合法性疑慮與政治責任,賴中強批評,立法院應該沒有臉把這種法案送給行政院,據他所知,藍白有想要再度修正。但再度修正會出現一個問題,你修的到底是以哪一個法為準?10月16日三讀通過的修法都還沒有公布生效,你要再次修法時,修正的原條文到底是什麼時候的條文?把10月16日的條文當成原條文來修?那個不是現行法律啊。
賴中強直指,如果是把10月16日修正前的「老人福利法」第22條當現行條文來修,不是違反「一事不再議」原則嗎?所以現在不是問行政院要不要覆議或副不副署,而是應該問立法院長韓國瑜、黃國昌、傅崐萁等人,「你們捅出了這麼大的簍子,你們要怎麼善後?你們怎麼對得起人民?」

To investigate the Dongying Resort farm road widening case, today we searched the service office of Taitung County Chairman Wu Xiuhua and interviewed former Taitung County Mayor Wu Junli. Xu Yuzhen, secretary-general of the Kuomintang League, criticized the judiciary's large-scale search for places related to the Kuomintang county magistrate candidate at a sensitive moment in the election. He questioned the judiciary's interference in the election and selective law enforcement. He emphasized that judicial neutrality is the last line of defense for democracy. The outcome of the election should be determined by the people's votes, not by prosecutorial search votes.

Last month, the Chinese government donated the decommissioned 500-ton patrol ship "Kinmen" to the Philippines, where it was received by the local non-governmental organization "WPS Foundation" and put into service with the Philippine Coast Guard. Executive President Zhuo Rongtai and Ocean Commission Chairman Guan Biling emphasized in the Legislative Yuan's inquiry that the ship was limited to performing unarmed missions in specific sea areas and did not target Chinese fishermen for law enforcement. The two countries have signed a fishery agreement and established three major consensuses, including avoiding the use of violence, establishing an emergency notification mechanism, and releasing detained persons and vessels as soon as possible. Guan Biling revealed that the Philippines had twice assisted Chinese fishing boats in distress, but Kuomintang legislator Su Qingquan questioned whether the ships were decommissioned despite their young age, and asked for an explanation of the progress of the Taiwan-Philippines fishing rights negotiations.
