The Countess of Mar

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When they anticipate the results of the neurological and immunological study of Gulf war veterans being conducted at King's College Hospital will be published. [HL1812]

Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean

The Ministry of Defence funded neuromuscular symptoms study and the analysis of blood samples collected from Gulf veterans as part of stage two of the United States Department of Defense funded study, both of which are being undertaken at Guy's, King's and St Thomas' School of Medicine, are expected to be completed later this year. The results from both studies are expected to be published in peer reviewed scientific journals. The timing of such publication is a matter for the relevant journals.
