Thank you, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, if I understand the Minister's answer correctly, the department, having received concrete proposals from existing dental clinics about how they could deliver the service, has finally decided that they don't need to hire another orthodontist to do a feasibility study, nor do they need to establish an expensive central agency, none of which was suggested by the private clinics that put the proposals to the department some months, if not years ago.

Bearing that in mind, Madam Speaker, is how much longer are we going to have to wait for some action on these sensible and cost-saving proposals? Thank you.
