Dental Services: Waiting Lists

Volume 479: debated on Monday 21 July 2008

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many people were waiting for NHS dental treatment in Plymouth Primary Care Trust area in the latest period for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement. (220675)

Information on the number of people waiting for national health service dental treatment is not collected centrally. It is for primary care trusts (PCTs) to make local arrangements to support patients in accessing NHS dental services. My hon. Friend may therefore wish to raise this issue with the Chief Executive of Plymouth Teaching PCT.
