Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have any plans to review the effectiveness of the leadership and governance arrangements of the General Dental Council.
The Department continues to take a keen interest in how the General Dental Council (GDC) is performing and its performance against the Professional Standards Authority’s good standards of regulation.
It is encouraging that the GDC is working hard to improve, however more is required to strengthen its performance.
