Water authority says Robinvale fluoridation part of wider plan
Lower Murray Water's Ron Leamon says the fluoridation of Robinvale's water supply is part of a State Government commitment to add fluoride to all reticulated drinking water. Mr Leamon says his authority does not make decisions on where the fluoride will be added, but provides a service for the Government.
However, he says 90 per cent of Australians now consume fluoridated water and, from a health perspective, it is quite safe.
"Really the issues are around dental cavities and potentially the improvements to oral health and particularly for children ... there's no evidence, contrary to health issues, as have been reported by various people," he said.
