§ Tim LoughtonTo ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) if he will include in the Children's National Service Framework the minimum standards from the Enuresis Resource and Information Centre for the treatment and management of enuresis; [108820]
(2) whether the treatment and management of enuresis and paediatric continence will be specifically mentioned in the Children's National Service Framework. [108823]
§ Jacqui Smith[holding answers 11 April 2003]: The Children's NSF will set out standards covering a broad range of services, including the management of common childhood conditions. While few specific conditions will be covered, the standards are likely to cover what support should be available to children and their parents in managing a wide range of conditions and problems, including enuresis. This will emphasise the promotion of evidence-based clinical guidelines and a number of examples of good practice in a range of different areas.
