HL Deb 03 July 2001 vol 626 c35WA
Lord Morris of Manchester

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What representations Health Ministers have received from the Haemophilia Comprehensive Care Centre in regard to additional prescribing rights for nurses in haemophilia centres; and what action they are taking. [HL15]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of Health (Lord Hunt of Kings Heath)

We are not aware of any representations from a Haemophilia Comprehensive Care Centre on prescribing responsibilities for nurses in haemophilia centres. The Government's proposals for the extension of prescribing responsibilities to more nurses are set out in a press release issued on 4 May 2001, a copy of which is available in the Library.
