Question:

185 Mr. Currie asked the Minister for Health when a person (details supplied) in Dublin 15, about whom there has been correspondence with his Department since June 1992, and who has been certified as having emotional problems, will receive orthodontic treatment.

Minister for Health (Mr. Howlin)

The priority to be afforded to the person referred to by the Deputy is being reviewed by the Eastern Health Board as a matter of urgency. I have asked the board to communicate with the Deputy as soon as the matter is completed.
