Proceeding contribution from Nick Palmer (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 January 2010. It occurred during Opposition day on Dementia Services.


Dementia Services

On that point, the Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology says that 700,000 is the current estimate but that in fact only one in three of those people have had a formal diagnosis from a doctor, so the previous intervention was not correct.
