Question
What is the Welsh Government doing to ensure that all dentists have access to air evacuation equipment in Wales?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Health and Social Services
The Welsh Government has provided funding of £450,000 to Health Boards to support dental practices providing NHS services install new ventilation equipment. This is aimed at reducing the time required between patient treatments. Many Health Boards provided additional funding to match that allocated by Welsh Government.
