HC Deb 10 May 1983 vol 42 c261W
Mrs. Dunwoody

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he will introduce a capitation fee for dentists undertaking continual treatment of children.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

We are discussing with the dental health services research unit at Manchester university and other interested parties, including the British Dental Association, the details of a pilot study to test the feasibility of capitation arrangements for children's dental care.
