HC Deb 07 December 1998 vol 322 c79W
Mr. Webb

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans he has for funding the Diana nurses beyond the initial three year period; and if he will make a statement. [62245]

Mr. Hutton

Following evaluation of the first pioneering teams, it is intended that Diana Community Children's Nursing teams will be extended to provide care to people across the United Kingdom. These teams will become a permanent memorial to Diana, Princess of Wales. The experience of the early pioneering teams will be used to determine the level of funding in future years.
