§ Mr. Craigenasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will take steps to ensure that form F1D is listed in the catalogue of social security leaflets NI 146/November 1981 so that more potential claimants are made aware of its existence; and why, since form NI 146/Nov. 1981 is listed, form F1D is not.
§ Mr. NewtonNI 146 is a catalogue of social security information leaflets which are generally available. It would not be appropriate to include it in form F1D, which290W is an application form for free or reduced cost dental treatment and is issued only by the dentist at the time of the patient's visit.
However, an information leaflet, "D11: NHS Dental Treatment", is listed in the catalogue and can be ordered from DHSS Leaflets Unit on the catalogue order form. This leaflet explains eligibility for free dental treatment, or help with the charges and is available from post offices, DHSS local offices, and various other sources.
The catalogue leaflet is itself listed in the catalogue, and on its order form, for people who want to order further copies.
