Recommendation 5
5
Paragraph: 38
Permanently apply ringfence to prevent diversion of NHS dental funding by ICBs
Recommendation
We welcome the fact that to try and address the underspend, NHS England is applying a ringfence for 2023/24, to ensure that no ICB can divert funding away from NHS dentistry. We recommend that this ringfence applies permanently, and NHS England puts in place transparent scrutiny to ensure compliance.
