Debate

Type 1 Diabetes: Infant Testing

Contribution

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Sir Alec, for the first time. My hon. Friend has touched on training and the need for awareness. One issue is that very often even people with type 1 diabetes, because of the lack of awareness, are not aware of the symptoms as they begin to react or their insulin is very low. Does he agree that what we also need is a general awareness of type 1 diabetes among the public?
