Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Oral Health Policy: Discussion
That would be helpful because we would, at least, know from where we were starting. Yesterday the Cabinet signed off on something that I initially proposed in 2014. Hence, I am not surprised when a matter is not progressed in a five-year timeframe. If the committee sets a target of securing change in this area in the next 12 months, it will be quite an achievement to reach it. It would be helpful for us to receive the documentation such that we could set it out as a goal to try to secure that change. When was the most recent engagement with the Department on this matter?
