Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Rea (Labour). It was answered on Wednesday, 17 November 2010.
NHS: Prebiotics
- Question
- My Lords, could not a strong case be made for the Department of Health to commission a suitably designed pilot study of prebiotics to see whether they are beneficial in the prevention of Clostridium difficile and other conditions?
- Answer
-
My Lords, as I have said, we will continue to look at the matter with interest. Of course the department has a very sizeable clinical research budget, which is open to all bids of a high quality. There is no reason why a bid should not be made on this issue as well.
