Proceeding contribution from Lord Colwyn (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 October 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Obesity.


Obesity

My Lords, does the Minister agree that as something like 50 to 60 per cent of children are registered with NHS dentists, the dental profession could have an important role to play in offering nutritional advice, not only to avoid dental decay but to help avoid obesity? Will he review the provision of UDAs—units of dental activity—for preventive advice on dental and general health?
