The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many dentist appointments were attended by irregular migrants in each year since 2018.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock

We do not hold data on how many dental appointments were attended by irregular migrants each year since 2018. Integrated care boards (ICBs) are responsible for assessing the needs of their population and ensuring that the relevant dental services are available.
