Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation Dail Éireann — 2023-02-15 ============================================================ Stephen Donnelly (FF), Wicklow An additional €15 million was put in place this year in the budget to address the DTSS and the backlogs for orthodontics and the school programme which, as we all appreciate, was delayed because of Covid. In this House, we talk a lot about what the Government needs to do to get dentists to sign up to the DTSS. Dentists are choosing to leave the DTSS because they make more money treating patients privately. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
