Charlie McConalogue
Question:21. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Health if he will provide the orthodontics budget directly to Letterkenny University Hospital instead of to Sligo University Hospital, and if he will clarify why he is allowing a situation to arise at Letterkenny University Hospital where the necessary infrastructure and staff are not being provided to the orthodontic department there, and as a result clinics are being cancelled on a continuous basis and waiting lists are growing; why there is no radiography equipment available in-house for the orthodontic department at the hospital; when a full complement of six dental nurses will be made available to the orthodontics department; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
