Dentistry
1:11 pm
Nick Hurd (Ruislip - Northwood, Conservative)
A specific concern of dentists in my constituency is that devolved budgets appear to be ring-fenced for only three years. Hillingdon PCT is wrestling with a deficit of £25 million, and dentists are concerned that in time funds will simply be siphoned off from dentistry into other medical priorities. Does the Minister understand those concerns, and what reassurance can she give?
