§ Lord Molloyasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether consideration is being given to establishing postgraduate dental centres in all 198WA regions equivalent to the Eastman Institute of Dental Surgery in London.
§ Lord SkelmersdaleWe have no plans to establish additional postgraduate dental centres. Each regional health authority in England and Wales has a postgraduate dean who is responsible for organising and arranging postgraduate courses for dental practitioners in his area. Similar arrangements exist in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
