  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations make further amendments to the National Health Service (General Dental Services) Regulations 1992 (S.I.1992/661), to correct amendments already made by the National Health Service (General Dental Services) Amendment Regulations 1993 (S.I.1993/2209).Those Regulations introduced the requirement that a dentist must have completed a period of vocational training before being included in the dental list of a Family Health Services Authority.The completion of this period would be evidenced by allocating the dentist a vocational training number, and the Regulations provided for an appeal against a refusal to allocate a vocational training number.These Regulations correct the appeal right by providing instead for the appeal to be against the refusal to include the dentist on a dental list because he has been refused a vocational training number.The Regulations also make some minor drafting amendments.",
