The Union Haddiema Maghqudin has ordered government dentists not to make dentures and/or fillings or carry out any administrative work.

The union said it has taken this step because the Health Division was not sticking to an agreement reached more than three years ago and was ignoring requests for discussion on a new agreement.

It said children with special needs will not be affected by the action, which is expected to intensify should the division persist with the present situation.
