Northern Ireland: GDS crisis raised with Stormont Health Committee
On Thursday, we briefed Members of the Legislative Assembly on the seriousness of the situation unfolding within Health Service dentistry.
Eligible Dental Core Trainee (DCT) and Specialty Registrar (StR) members in Northern Ireland have voted to support industrial action – a 24-hour total walk-out is being co-ordinated with Junior Doctors in Northern Ireland, along with the BMA.
Our eligible members will take industrial action for 24 hours from 7.59am on Tuesday 6 March until 7.59am on Wednesday 7 March.
Although our numbers are small, our voice is powerful.
The BMA will be organising logistics for the strike day.
Employers and the Department were officially notified of the 24-hour strike action by letter on Monday 26 February.
We will notify you of any further subsequent action.
