Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Challenges Relating to the Provision of Dentistry Services: Discussion
9:30 am
Mr. Fintan Hourihan:
It is difficult to give precise data. There are not many of them. Mr. O'Flynn has recorded the experience there, certainly with the regulated dentists and hygienists. It is very difficult to say with regard to dental nurses. Earlier I made the point that because dentists, in particular, are typically self-employed rather than employees, the work permits do not really assist. It is more of a question around visas rather than permits.
