Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what data his Department holds on the number of people registered with a NHS dentist in (a) Barnsley and (b) South Yorkshire in each year since 2010.
The information requested is not held centrally as dental patients are not registered to a specific practice. A practice can accept a patient for a course of treatment and are no geographical restrictions on which dental practice a patient may attend, allowing the choice of where treatment is received.
