stable belt Q A R A N C as dental hygienist

I am trying to obtain as much information as possible to the A D C/R A D C
On the site stable bets of the British army there is a stable belt worn by Q A R A N C when attached to the R A D C as dental hygienists
the belt is the normal clasp of the Q A R A N C with a belt of green/grey/green i e not the normal colours of either corps
I have never seen one of these -does anybody have one in their collection or know of one in other collections

Found this on QARANC website :

Quote:

I have been sent the photograph of a corps stable belt above to identify. It has the QARANC buckle but not the scarlet, white and blue colours of the QAs belts. I suspect that it was for a member of the army dental services. Junior female ranks were members of the QARANC until the army medical services reforms in the late 1990s. So although they served with the RADC (Royal Army Dental Corps) they were members of the QARANC, trained at the QA Centre and followed the pay and rank structure of the QAs.
