§ Mr. Adleyasked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will now make available on the National Health Service disposable syringes for registered diabetics; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MoyleI do not think we would be justified in diverting the necessary expenditure from other National Health Service priorities. Where disposable syringes are essential for a diabetic patient on medical grounds, they can be supplied through hospitals.
