255 Deputy Phil Hogan asked the Minister for Health and Children if she will continue home support for children suffering from autism; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [15174/09]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy's question relates to service matters I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply.
256 Deputy Paul Gogarty asked the Minister for Health and Children if she will provide a copy of the orthodontic guidelines for children under 16 seeking non-routine dental treatment. [15194/09]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Guidelines referred to by the Deputy were developed by The Orthodontic Review Group established by the Health Service Executive in 2006.
As the implementation of the new guidelines is the responsibility of the Executive, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have this matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
