Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Irish Dental Association Strategic Workforce Plan: Irish Dental Association

Mr. Fintan Hourihan:

We would be delighted to do that. The priorities fall under three headings. One is capacity and having enough dentists and team members to provide care. The second is focus on vulnerable groups of patients, which would be medical card patients and children. The third is the legislation. Some of those are budgetary and some not. We will be happy to elaborate and give the Deputy a concise version concerning prioritising what needs to be done and distinguishing between budgetary and policy or legislation. We will hopefully make that clear and concise.
