Mrs JILLIAN SKINNER: My question is directed to the Premier. Is it acceptable that Jeff Miners has suffered such pain that he pulled out one of his own teeth after waiting four years for dental treatment, has had to take masses of painkillers and antibiotics, is worried sick about being unable to find the $2,500 to have remaining teeth extracted and still does not have an appointment for treatment and dentures?

Mr MORRIS IEMMA: I take on notice the details that the shadow Minister has just outlined in relation to the constituent to whom she referred. I am advised that the Greater Southern Area Health Service is in contact with the constituent and I am further advised it will continue to work with him to ensure that he receives the care he requires.

The SPEAKER: Order! The House will come to order.

Mr MORRIS IEMMA: That is the advice that I have just been given by the health authorities. The member outlined a number of details and I will undertake to have them put before the health service to ensure that contact has been made and that the constituent gets the care that is required.

Mrs Jillian Skinner: Point of order: My point of order relates to Standing Order 129 and relevance. I asked the Premier whether it was acceptable.

The SPEAKER: Order! The member will resume her seat.

Mr MORRIS IEMMA: If what the member has outlined is accurate, no, it is not. She has provided details. I will undertake to have those checked. I am advised that the southern area health service is in contact. We will ensure that is in fact the case and that the constituent, whose details she has raised, receives the care that he requires.
