Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Patel (Crossbench). It was answered on Tuesday, 24 July 2007.


Health: InterAct Reading Service

Question
My Lords, as the Minister recognises that this is a beneficial service, will she do everything possible to encourage all hospitals and hospices to make this service available for patients with stroke? I declare an interest as a council member of the Stroke Association.
Answer

My Lords, as noble Lords may be aware, the Government are conducting a consultation about stroke strategy. We have published a document called A New Ambition for Stroke, which is being discussed up and down the country. Perhaps people could include that document in their discussions with the Government in the context of the new stroke strategy.
