HC Deb 09 June 1969 vol 784 c190W
Mr. John Hall

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what was the total cost of administration of the Dental Estimates Board in 1968 or the last year for which figures are available; and what percentage this is of the value of estimates considered by the board during that period.

Mr. Crossman

The total administrative cost of the Dental Estimates Board in the year ended 31st December, 1967, the latest year for which details are yet available, was about £1.388 million; this is about 2 per cent. of the value of estimates authorised for payment during that period.
