Thursday 18th July at 10am. Public Welcome to Attend.
Fluoridation is
item 12 on Hampshire County Council's meeting next week. The
following motion has been put forward by Cllr Stallard and seconded by Cllr
Carter:
"This Council notes that the
recommendations on proposals for the fluoridation of drinking water in
Southampton and South West Hampshire, as agreed by all political groups at full
Council on 20th November 2008, Item 9, Minute 345, remain still to be
addressed. Accordingly the Council reaffirms its position, primarily that the
addition of fluoride to water supplies is not adopted until such time that clear
evidence of benefit and no harm from mass medication has been established and
that Public Health England be advised accordingly".
The council meeting is on Thursday 18th July at 10am and will be held at The
Castle, Winchester and is open to the public.
It would be good for some supporters
of HAF to make an appearance on the day.
The important issue now is whether
Public Health England has the authority to progress fluoridation from the
defunct SCSHA in its aim to introduce it in 2014.
