Question 348: To ask the Minister for Health and Children if she will provide a material safety data sheet for the agent (details supplied) used in compulsory water fluoridation; the cost of compulsory water fluoridation here for 2006; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [6383/07]

The material safety data sheet for fluorosilicic acid, as requested by the Deputy, is available on the fluorosilicic acid supplier's website: http://www.chemifloc.ie/msds/MSDS
The Deputy's question about the cost of water fluoridation in 2006 relates to the funding, management and delivery of health and personal social services, which are the responsibility of the Health Service Executive under the Health Act 2004. Accordingly, my Department has requested the Parliamentary Affairs Division of the Executive to arrange to have this matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
