Proceeding contribution from Andrew Murrison (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 January 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Emergency Care.


Emergency Care

Does the Secretary of State agree that although stroke has emerged from the shadows as a true emergency because of the advent of imaging and thrombolysis, the United Kingdom has some of the worst outcomes in the western world? Will he also comment on the Stroke Association's assertion that"““access to acute emergency stroke services throughout the UK is…in need of urgent improvement””?"
