Written question asked by Earl Baldwin of Bewdley (Crossbench), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Earl Howe (Conservative) on Thursday, 30 June 2011.
Fluoridation
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Earl Howe on 6 June (WA 40–1), whether a period of 11 years between the institution of a legal requirement to monitor the effects of water fluoridation schemes in the United Kingdom and the publication of the first reports on existing schemes represents a satisfactory response to potential health concerns.
- Answer
-
As my previous reply indicated, we will meet the statutory requirements to monitor the effects of water fluoridation schemes. The monitoring will complement that already undertaken by the public health observatories which we are confident would have already identified any major differences in morbidity or mortality between the health of the populations of fluoridated and non-fluoridated areas.
