Jane Ellison

No discussions have taken place between Ministers of the Department and the Northern Ireland Executive on improving access to high-quality services for people affected by Parkinson’s disease.

As health is a devolved matter these issues are not regularly discussed between Ministers and their counterparts in the devolved administrations, however research and evidence of best practice is made widely available throughout the United Kingdom.
