HC Deb 19 February 1973 vol 851 c21W
Mr. Knox

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what was the average number of patients treated per full-time dental officer in the school dental service in 1971; and what the comparable figure was for the county of Staffordshire.

Mr. St. John-Stevas

1,000 and 930 respectively; some allowance has been made in these figures for staffing fluctuations during the year and the work of dental auxiliaries is included.
