§ Dr. Roger Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Wales which health authorities in Wales currently employ dental therapists; and what effect the phasing-out of dental therapists would have on the standard of dental care in Wales.
§ Mr. Wyn RobertsAll except Powys. If dental therapists were phased out the treatment they provide would be undertaken by community clinical dental staff. Standards of care should not, therefore, suffer.
