Dentistry: Training
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to expand dental training programmes.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
To reform the National Health Service and make it fit for the future, we have launched a 10-Year Health Plan as part of the Government’s five long-term missions.
A central part of the 10-Year Health Plan will be our workforce and how we ensure we train and provide the staff, technology, and infrastructure the NHS needs to care for patients across our communities.
We will publish a refreshed Long Term Workforce Plan to deliver the transformed health service we will build over the next decade and treat patients on time again.
We will ensure the NHS has the right people, in the right places, with the right skills to deliver the care patients need when they need it.
