Okay, but Deputy Donnelly is the Minister. We have had a session on this. I believe it was the middle of last year when we put a focus on the dental treatment service scheme. The Irish Dental Association and the HSE lead came before us. At that point, we were told this was a priority, but I have not seen any movement. What I am seeing is more dentists leaving the scheme. It is great the Minister agrees with me, the Irish Dental Association and the patients waiting for treatment, but with respect, what we want to see is a resolution of the issue.
