Ned O'Keeffe
Question:132 Mr. E. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Health if he will have arrangements made for orthodontic treatment for a student (details supplied) in County Cork; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the criteria laid down under this scheme are very restrictive; if his attention has further been drawn to the fact that many of those refused treatment under the scheme have been placed in the severe category; and if he will amend the criteria laid down to ensure that the younger generation receive the necessary dental treatment.
