ADAVB welcomes new ALP rural plan

The Branch issued a media release late on Monday 5 November welcoming the announcement by Premier Steve Bracks that if re-elected to Government the Labor Party would establish a BDSc course at the Bendigo campus of LaTrobe University, and create a number of new regional training chairs in Wodonga, Mildura and Melton.

These measures were recognised as constructively addressing the maldistribution of the dental workforce, and targetting the treatment needs of public patients in areas with long dental waiting lists.

Interviews with Branch President Dr Greg Morris followed on the Channel 7 News and on ABC radio in Gippsland.
