HC Deb 20 July 1959 vol 609 c852
41. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Minister of Health what is the estimated shortage of dentists in the County of Essex and, in particular, in the Borough of Leyton.

Mr. R. Thompson

I regret that no such estimate is available.

Mr. Sorensen

Will the hon. Gentleman take steps to get the information, because it is of some public importance and significance?

Mr. Thompson

I am bound to say that I understand that the Essex Executive Council has received very few complaints indeed of the effect of any shortage of dentists in Essex or in Leyton, in particular.
