Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am aware that is the case. That is why I'm asking this question. The Minister says that coverage is available when you need dental surgery. Yes, when we need to anaesthetize five and six year old children and extract all of their teeth because they are rotten, oh, we'll pay for that. But what about ongoing dental care, dental hygiene and issues to do with people's gums? Even if you have coverage, people can't even get to the services. Medical travel doesn't go if it is a dental issue. No medical travel. Why is that? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
