Michael Ring

Question:

182 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will be called for orthodontic treatment; when he will be treated; the exact date he was placed on the waiting list; his placing on the list; and when he can expect to be called. [3919/01]

Minister for Health and Children (Mr. Martin)

As the provision of orthodontic services to eligible persons in County Mayo is the statutory responsibility of the Western Health Board, I have asked the chief executive officer of the board to investigate the position in relation to this case and to reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
