Stagg asked whether children aged 12 to 16 would be covered; Woods said the proposal covered dependent spouses and that children’s dental services were under review.

Has the Minister any proposal to cover the children of insured workers between the ages of 12 and 16 who are excluded from all the benefit schemes?

That does not come under my brief. The present proposal is to benefit the dependent spouse of the insured worker. There is a Review Body on State Funded Dental Services in which the Department of Health and the Department of Social Welfare are co-operating.
