HOW TO COMPLAIN
If you are unhappy about the decision made to fluoridate YOUR drinking water,there are a number of effective ways you can complain. Time and time again,the Government has reassured people that fluoridation schemes will only beimplemented where there is strong local support. This has not happened here inthe Southampton area despite 72% opposition – so the words of Gordon Brownand Alan Johnson are meaningless and this undemocratic decision MUST bechallenged.
Official Complaint
This is really worth doing but must be done in two stages:
Write a letter of complaint to the South Central Strategic Health Authority outlining why youare unhappy with the decision and what you feel they did wrong. You may do this by email if more convenient.Wait until you receive a reply, then if you are not satisfied, you can write to the Parliamentary& Health Ombudsman. Again, specify why you are unhappy, what you feel was wrong withthe consultation and subsequent decision and what you feel should be done now.
