Motion Text

That this House recognises the significant impact that Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis, SPMS, has upon those with the disease, their families, the NHS and society overall; welcomes the recently launched report “The Forgotten Many: A 2020 Vision for Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis” which challenges the status quo in the treatment and management of SPMS; notes the key opportunities identified for improving care and outcomes for SPMS patients; and calls for robust engagement on the report’s recommendations to ensure SPMS patients are not left behind.
