HC Deb 07 April 2003 vol 403 cc93-4W
Tim Loughton

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what steps he is taking to speed up the time it takes to identify people with AAT Deficiency. [106608]

Jacqui Smith

However, we have no plans centrally to take specific steps to speed up the time it takes to identify people with this condition.
