The Treatment Benefit Scheme provides dental, optical and aural services to insured workers, the self-employed, retired people and their dependant spouse/partner who have the required number of social insurance (PRSI) contributions. The Department has contacted the person concerned and the appropriate grant will be paid in respect of her claim.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
