Fluoridated Milk Programme
Dear Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council,
I should be most grateful if you would answer the following questions.
Is your education authority still running a fluoridated milk programme in (a) primary schools and (b) nurseries?
If so, please send me details of any evaluation studies which have been completed in order to justify the continuation of the scheme.
If the fluoridated milk programme in (a) primary schools and (b) nurseries is NOT still running, please provide the following information:
1. When the fluoridated milk programme ceased in (a) primary schools and (b) nurseries.
2. Why the programme ceased in (a) primary schools and (b) nurseries.
3. Have dental hygiene programmes replaced the provision of fluoridated milk in (a) primary schools and (b) nursery settings? If so how many primary schools and nurseries are providing dental hygiene tuition?
Please state the percentage of schools and nurseries which are NOT providing dental hygiene tuition.
I thank you for your kind attention to the above.
Yours faithfully,
Leigh Puddifoot
