Question:106 Mr. Ellis asked the Minister for Health the waiting period for orthodontic treatment for medical card holders in each health board area. [5078/97]
Written Answers. - Orthodontic Service.
Limerick East): The information requested by the Deputy is not readily available in my Department. The maintenance of waiting lists for orthodontic services to eligible persons is the statutory responsibility of the health boards. I have asked each health board to provide me with the information. Unfortunately, the complete information was not available on time. However, I will write to the Deputy with the complete information as soon as possible.
