§ Mr. Gordon PrenticeTo ask the Secretary of State for Health how many persons with relapsing or remitting MS have been prescribed Beta Interferon in each health authority in England at the latest date for which figures are available. [264]
§ Alan MilburnThe information requested is not available, but following the issue of guidance to the National Health Service in November 1995, I am asking for a general report from each health authority on local policies for prescribing beta-interferon, and will write to my hon. Friend when these are available.
