Fluoridation Processes for Drinking Water - An Introduction

The “Health (Fluoridation of Drinking Water) Amendment Act 2021” requires all drinking water supplies to be fluoridated. This legal requirement has shifted the decision-making authority on community water fluoridation from local authorities to the Director-General of Health on the basis that it is a health-based decision. Previously, about half of all municipal drinking water supplies were fluoridated meaning a significant change for the other half.
