§ Mr. LlwydTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what plans his Department has to fund a medical centre for Wales to carry out assessment of suspected organophosphate poisoning sufferers; and if he will make a statement. [26985]
§ Mr. RichardsThere are no plans to fund such a centre.
Assessments of suspected organophosphate poisoning can be carried out by general practitioners, who are able to obtain advice on diagnosis and treatment from the Welsh national poisons unit. It is also open to GPs to refer patients to hospital consultants.
