Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow

I thank the Deputy. As she will be aware, we allocated a great deal of money into the scheme. We have significantly increased the fees this year. The reality is the dentists themselves are withdrawing from the scheme. We can only presume that is because they make more money from private practice than they make from treating the public patients.
