HC Deb 18 October 1982 vol 29 c27W
Mr. Terry Davis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether there is any restriction on a dentist taking his own equipment into a prison to treat a prisoner if the equipment is necessary for such treatment in the clinical judgment of the dentist.

Mr. Mayhew:

There is no objection in principle to a dentist who works in a Prison Department establishment bringing in any piece of equipment which he considers to be clinically necessary.
