Dear Freedom of Information (LTHTR),

Apologies for the long delay in response.

I am requesting a value for the Dental Service Increment for Teaching (dSIFT) which is a fund allocated to the health trust, which is used to aid in the funding of dental undergraduates, in this case those at UCLAN. The funding is allocated to the NHS trust by HEE.

In question 2 - Medical for Dental SIFT is a component of dSIFT which is used to fund the Human Disease (Clinical Medicine Relevant to Dentistry) undregraduate course. My question was asking what is the value of the Medical for Dental SIFT.

Yours sincerely,

Ben Jones
