Question:

48 Ms O'Donnell asked the Minister for Defence if he has satisfied himself that the present arrangements regarding dental care in the Curragh camp represent the most cost effective method of providing a dental service to members of the Defence Forces in that camp.

Minister for Defence (Mr. Andrews)

A fully comprehensive dental service is provided for personnel of the Curragh Command either by referral to Army Medical Corps dentists or to civilian dentists. These arrangements are considered to be satisfactory.
