Labour — Aberafan Maesteg

Speaking in the House of Commons on 9 June 2026

Debate

Dental Recruitment Incentive Scheme

Contribution

My hon. Friend is absolutely right that, as we know, there are areas in the country that are known as dental deserts. We have to fix that. It comes back to the fundamental issue of how we incentivise dentists to do NHS dentistry regardless of where they are in the country. There are particularly acute pressures in constituencies such as the one she so brilliantly represents, and I would be happy to meet her to discuss them further.
