Topical Questions

Question

What health problems are caused by first-cousin marriages, and how much does dealing with those problems cost the NHS each year?

Answer

I cannot give my hon. Friend a specific answer, but I would be very happy to get back to him because I know there has been some local discussion about this in the city that he represents. I know of the issues to which he refers.
