answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/03/2024 answer text <p>To support practices in areas where recruitment is particularly challenging, we will launch a new Golden Hello scheme. We will implement schemes working with integrated care boards that are struggling to recover their activity levels, and would significantly benefit. A Golden Hello of £20,000 will be offered per dentist for up to 240 dentists. Payments will be phased over three years, requiring a commitment from the dentist to stay in that area delivering National Health Service work for at least three years. We will decide on locations in the coming months.</p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom question first answered 21/03/2024 16:22:32 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom
