§ Mr. Neil Hamiltonasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what published scientific evidence is available to his Department on the effects of the addition of fluoride to the domestic water supply on the incidence of tooth decay.
§ Mr. WhitneyEvidence from around the world has proved conclusively that water fluoridation reduces dental decay. In this country the evidence of the efficacy of fluoridation is equally well documented. A comprehensive review of the evidence from the United Kingdom and abroad is contained in "Fluorides in Caries Prevention" by Murray J. J. and Rugg-Gunn A. J. (1982).
