The Department of Health has been unable to fill the post of Chief Dental Officer on a full time basis due to the moratorium on recruitment. Accordingly, it was agreed with the HSE that the HSE National Oral Health Lead would be released to the Department for two days each week to undertake the function of Chief Dental Officer, with effect from 20 May 2013. The arrangement will be reviewed after 3 years.
