928. To ask the Minister for Health the reason children in second and sixth classes nationally will be called back for dental checks and not all primary and secondary school-going children; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that it is very often at school dentist appointments that issues are detected at an early stage and resolved; and the reason HSE school dentists who retire are not being replaced.

As this is a service matter, it has been referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy.
