Marama Davidson: Greens co-leader on the Party planning to introduce free dental care for all

from The Weekend Collective · host Newstalk ZB

The Greens say hundreds of thousands of people need dental care, but are held back by the cost. The Party's new plan includes annual check-ups and cleaning and free fillings, sealants, and tooth removals for anyone who needs them. Green Party co-leader Marama Davidson says this plan will be covered by a wealth tax, which will only impact a small percent of taxpayers. "People just aren't going because it costs too much. There's capacity out there right now, and at the same time, we'd also build up the workforce." LISTEN ABOVE    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
