Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Dementia Sufferers.
Dementia Sufferers
My hon. Friend has mentioned pressure on council budgets. The current number of dementia sufferers in the East Riding of Yorkshire is at present 4,700. It is expected to be more than 7,700 by 2021—a very few years from now. I hope that the Minister will take on board the need for additional funding, to take account of what is probably the biggest issue facing British society—dealing with an ageing population.
