HC Deb 02 April 1953 vol 513 cc177-8W
56. Mr. Blenkinsop

asked the Minister of Health why he has decided to close the training school for oral hygienists early in 1954.

Miss Hornsby-Smith

The school was organised solely for the purpose of an experiment, now completed, in the training and use of oral hygienists and was financed wholly from public funds. The final report on the results of the experiment was published in the Annual Report of the Central Health Services Council for 1951.
