§ 10. Mr. Lubbockasked the Minister of Health what steps he is taking to bring about the establishment of an emergency dental service.
§ Mr. K. RobinsonOn present advice I do not consider that the establishment of such a service would be justified.
§ Mr. LubbockDoes the Minister consider that in establishing the health centres that he is talking about there might be some scope for including dental services among those to be provided?
§ Mr. RobinsonThis is done, but not on a very extensive scale. The Estimates Committee considered this question a few years ago but concluded that the setting up of special arrangements, whether financed by the dentists themselves or by the Health Departments, would not be justified.
