79. Dr. O'Hanlon asked the Minister for Health the number of patients who attended an orthodontist in each community care area in 1994. [12338/96]
Minister for Health (Mr. Noonan,: Limerick East): I propose to take Questions Nos. 78 and 79 together. The provision of orthodontic treatment services [1893] is the statutory responsibility of the health boards. The information requested by the Deputy is not maintained by my Department. Accordingly I have asked the chief executive officer of each health board to provide the information requested directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.
