the House of Commons public accounts committee has concluded that the Tories' Dental Recovery Plan, purported to incentivise a reversal of the crisis in NHS dentistry has exactly the opposite effect seeing the £88mn scheme producing a further drop of 3% in new NHS patients seen last year.
Moreover, the mobile dentistry element of the scheme was quietly dropped leaving many rural areas still without NHS dental coverage.
Q. is: does Labour have a plan to alleviate this crisis?
