No answers to dental service allegations

IN November 2006, as a member of the orthodontic services review body, I submitted a minority report to the chairman of the committee Mr Hugh Kane, and to Professor B Drumm.

In that report I called for an independent investigation of the allegation of damage to children within the public health orthodontic service and the continued harassment and bullying of consultants who speak out on behalf of their patients by management.

It is clear that every attempt is being made within the HSE to prevent a tribunal being asked to investigate these issues.
