HC Deb 23 April 1917 vol 92 c2052W
Mr. ANDERSON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether soldiers who are sent to hospital for dental treatment can be treated free by the dental operator if they belong to a lower medical category than Class A or B 1; whether men belonging to lower categories are expected themselves to pay for the dental treatment; and, if so, on what ground this differentiation is justified?

Mr. MACPHERSON

Dental treatment, other than the provision of dentures, is given free to all soldiers. No men are expected to pay for such treatment.
