Fluoridation

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what representations the Government have made to the Nuffield Council on Bioethics on fluoridation.
Answer

The Government have made no representations to the Nuffield Council on Bioethics working party on public health with respect to issues relating to water fluoridation during its consultation period nor has it been invited to. The Government’s policy with respect to water fluoridation is in the public domain and is therefore available to the working party should they wish to see it.
