Question:

112 Mr. L. Fitzgerald asked the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that a person (details supplied) in Dublin 17 was advised that he would receive treatment in August/September 1992 but is still awaiting treatment which is urgently required; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Minister for Health (Mr. Howlin)

As the provision of dental treatment in Dublin is the responsibility of the Eastern Health Board in the first instance I have referred this matter to the Chief Executive Officer of the Eastern Health Board for his immediate attention and direct reply to you.
