513. Deputy Michael Murphy asked the Minister for Health the performance indicators that are used by the HSE to monitor orthodontic services in South Tipperary; the frequency with which these indicators are reviewed; the intervention thresholds that apply where waiting lists continue to increase; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [46625/26]

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
