Minister, in response to the Health, Social Care and Sport Committee's inquiry into dentistry in Wales, the Welsh Government failed to commit a single penny of new investment. The British Dental Association has stated that:

'The crisis facing NHS dentistry in Wales won't be solved with a few warm words'.

Their words, not mine. Therefore, what discussions are you having with the health Minister to ensure that the necessary contract reforms and additional recruitment in dentists are supported by sufficient and additional funding?
