There was a drop in taxable income for GDPs England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in 2012-13. This is according to data published by the Health and Social Care Information Centre (HSCIC). Their figures show that this was due to gross earnings decreasing more than total expenses and is in line with the general trend since 2006-07.
England & Wales
Average taxable income (average gross earnings less average total expenses) for all self-employed primary care dentists was £72,600, compared to £74,400 in 2011-12, a 2.4 per cent decrease, which is statistically significant.
Northern Ireland
Average taxable income (average gross earnings less average total expenses) for all self-employed GDS dentists (i.e. Principals and Associates) was £71,600, compared to £75,800 in 2011-12, a 5.6 per cent decrease, which is not statistically significant as lower numbers were surveyed.
Scotland
Average taxable income (average gross earnings less average total expenses) for all self-employed GDS dentists (i.e. Principals and Associates) was £68,800, compared to £71,700 in 2011-12, a 4.0 per cent decrease, which is not statistically significant as lower numbers were surveyed.
