Ceist:

349 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Health and Children when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will be called for orthodontic treatment; and if this person will be called urgently under the waiting list initiative scheme. [21208/02]

Responsibility for the provision of orthodontic treatment in this instance rests with the Western Health Board. My Department has asked the chief executive officer to investigate the matter raised by the Deputy and to reply to him directly.
