Part of the issue is the complete lack of access to orthodontic services. We are running a system whereby we let people go so far that the only thing that can be done is extreme orthodontic treatment. The Minister in question is sitting on a report on the services and education of orthodontists. We have been unable to get that report from the Minister. I am wondering, if we are going to look at the issue, whether we could get the Minister to give us that report. It was done five years ago and has been sitting on a desk.
