I know the Chairman is anxious for me to finish, but I have been waiting a long time. When one has a long drought, one generally drinks from the pool for a little bit longer, similarly with dental care and orthodontics. We have covered the interaction with the general population but I have not really got any great response on interaction with the Irish Dental Association even though previous speakers have asked that question too. Dentists in the field are working in that business every day and they should have first-hand accounts of whether progress is being made. If they are complaining that we or the authorities do not liaise with them sufficiently, somebody is wrong. It might not be deliberate, but if someone is wrong, that is to the detriment of the quality of the service. That is not a criticism, it is just a statement. Could we have some further elucidation on that if it is a possibility?
