Medical card holders’ dental waiting lists

Summary

Stagg asked what was being done about two-year waits for medical card holders; the Ceann Comhairle said that matter belonged to another Minister.

I appreciate the Minister's difficulty dealing with this treatment in isolation. In view of normal collective responsibility in such matters, will he tell the House what action is being taken to shorten the two year average waiting list for treatment for medical card holders——

This question deals specifically with social welfare recipients. If you have a question dealing with medical card holders that is the responsibility of another Minister.
