Motor Neurone Disease: Health Services
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent discussions he has had with Devolved administrations on improving support for people living with motor neurone disease.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
My rt. Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, meets regularly with counterparts across the devolved administrations. We have set up a United Kingdom-wide Neuro Forum, facilitating formal, biannual meetings across the Department, NHS England, the devolved administrations and health services, and the Neurological Alliances of all four nations. The new forum, which met for the first time on 10 March 2025, brings key stakeholders together, to share learnings across the system and discuss challenges, best practice examples, and potential solutions for improving the care of people with neurological conditions, including motor neurone disease.
