§ Mr. Jannerasked the Minister of Health what are the present arrangements for the remuneration of dental radiographers under the National Health Scheme; and whether he is satisfied that these arrangements are adequate to ensure the continued development of this service.

§ Mr. BevanDental radiographers employed in hospitals are paid according to the national salary scales for radiographers generally. In the general dental services a dentist who accepts a patient normally either takes necessary radiographs himself or arranges for them to be taken by another dentist or doctor; he is paid in accordance with the prescribed scale of fees. I am not aware of any special difficulty in this matter.
