As someone in close contact with the the dental team from the
professional side I can't agree more than this stinks of the
political ramblings regarding access to dental care. The 'new'
contract due for implementation on October '05 is still lacking in
fine detail: despite the so-called increase in 'overseas' graduates,
(with the target of the equivalent of 1000 new dentists by October)
there is no handling of the continuing exodus. It is preparing you
all for your increased roles in care provision.
