HC Deb 15 October 2001 vol 372 c823W
Virginia Bottomley

To ask the Prime Minister what correspondence he has had with Cruse Bereavement Care in the past four weeks; and if he will make a statement. [7548]

The Prime Minister

The right hon. Member for South-West Surrey has written to my office about the work of Cruse Bereavement Care.

I will be writing to Mike Pearson, Chairman of Cruse Bereavement Care, this week to thank him for the outstanding way that Cruse has responded to the tragic events of 11 September in the US. During my recent visit to New York, I was very impressed by what I heard about the Cruse team's tireless efforts. Their staff both here and in New York have provided hope and comfort to many families.
