END OF LIFE STRATEGY A WELCOME START - MULHOLLAND

July 17, 2008 3:02 AM

Greg Mulholland MP, Older People's Spokesperson for the Liberal Democrats, has called the Government's End of Life Strategy a 'welcome start'.

Mr Mulholland clashed with Minister Ivan Lewis over End of Life Care earlier in the year during a heated Parliamentary debate.

Commenting Greg said:

"End of life care is an issue which is all too often marginalised and ignored, so I am glad that the Government has finally listened to the concerns which have been raised across the board, and responded.

"There is much to welcome in today's strategy, particularly increased investment in end of life care. It is a welcome start.

"What we need now is the Government to continue to demonstrate that it is committed to addressing this issue, and not allow it to slide off the political agenda."

ENDS

    If you are a resident of the Leeds North West constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
