Fluoride (Repeal of Enactments) Bill 2002

Public bill · Private Member · Introduced

The Bill would repeal the law allowing fluoride to be added to public drinking-water supplies, so local authorities could no longer fluoridate Irish water. Its sponsor argued that fluoride works when applied directly to teeth, while swallowing too much may cause fluorosis and other health effects.
