Dinny McGinley

Ceist:

61 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for Health if he will outline the way in which the average dental spending per eligible person for those provided with public dental care by the health boards compares with the average dental spending per person eligible for dental care under the PRSI funded treatment benefit; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Minister for Health (Dr. O'Hanlon)

I have asked my Department to seek the necessary information from the Department of Social Welfare to enable me to reply to this question and I will write to the Deputy on the matter as soon as possible.
