Lord Scriven (LD)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 June 2025

Debate

Learning Disabilities Nursing

Contribution

My Lords, the Minister just referred to the LeDeR report, which points out the persistent avoidable deaths of people with learning disabilities. Yet we now have a seven-month delay for the latest annual report, which shows a lack of urgency. Does the Minister agree that this leads to a genuine perception that the sector’s critical concerns are not being prioritised, and that this in itself hinders promotion of learning disabilities nursing?
