This refers to an issue relating to the mid-Leinster area where orthodontic services were discontinued and there was a sense that some children had suffered as a consequence. The health committee, under a previous Government, held meetings on this. I believe it was in 2005. Two experts from the UK looked at the evidence and those two experts have called for their review to be published. They completed it in 2015 but it has not been published. That is the issue. Myself and other Deputies have been approached on this and have all asked parliamentary questions. The answer we receive is that the review is ongoing but the review that the two specialists from the UK completed in 2015 has not been published.
