§ Mr. RedmondTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what assessment he has made of the number of preventable deaths from asthma. [2227]
§ Mr. SackvilleWe do not have the information centrally on which to base such an assessment. It is important that people with asthma should discuss with their general practitioner or an asthma nurse what their individual trigger factors are and how to avoid them, and what practical steps and medicines they may take to control their symptoms.
