Jerome Mayhew
I will take an intervention from my other constituency neighbour, the hon. Member for Norwich North (Alice Macdonald).
Alice Macdonald (Norwich North) (Lab/Co-op)
Does the hon. Member recognise the support from all parties for a new dental school in Norwich? Does he welcome the £1.5 million that was announced last week by the Greater Norwich Growth Board in support of the bid for a new dental school?
Jerome Mayhew
That is the kind of intervention that I find constructive and helpful, and I am very grateful to the hon. Member for making it. She is, of course, quite right. We disagree on many things, as I do with the hon. Member for North Norfolk (Steff Aquarone), but there are some things that bring us together, and the need for a dental training school at the University of East Anglia is one of them.
