HC Deb 10 May 1965 vol 712 c5W
Dr. Summerskill

asked the Minister of Health what steps he is taking to encourage those local authorities, which have not already done so, to authorise the fluoridation of their water supplies where this is necessary.

Mr. K. Robinson

In January local health authorities were sent an up-to-date edition of my Department's booklet setting out the main facts on fluoridation. I am very anxious to see fluoridation extended, and I am considering how and when further encouragement can best be given.
