Vol. 533 No. 3
193 Mr. McGuinness asked the Minister for Health and Children the reasons for the delay in providing orthodontic treatment to a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny who is 12 years of age and requires an appointment urgently. [8653/01]
As the provision of orthodontic services to eligible persons in County Kilkenny is the statutory responsibility of the South Eastern Health Board, I have asked the chief executive officer of that board to investigate the position in relation to this case and to reply directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
