Lord Colwyn

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Under what authority the Chief Dental Officer for Scotland has acted against General Dental Council guidelines and decided that, when sedation is provided within the National Health Service by a dentist or anaesthetist, it is to be limited to the use of a single drug. [HL2526]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

This is a matter for the Scottish Parliament. Issues relating to general dental services are devolved.
