Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Lord Ashley of Stoke (Labour), on Friday, 1 February 1991, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 91 members in total.
PARKINSON'S DISEASE
That this House recognises that Parkinson's disease is a major neurological disease with potentially serious disabling consequences; is aware that it necessitates the taking of drugs continuously and for life; believes that it is unjust for young sufferers, apart from those on very low incomes, to have the additional burden of paying for these drugs; and calls upon the Government to give automatic prescription charge exemption for drugs that are essential for the relief of Parkinson's disease.
