Provision Of Beta Interferon

EDM number 562 in 1998-99, proposed by Paul Burstow on 20/04/1999.

That this House notes the issuing of Health Service Circular 1999/999 on the multiple sclerosis drug Beta Interferon; believes that this circular represents a further withdrawal from the Government's pledge of universal care for those that need it; finds the circular pre-empts proper consideration by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence; and opposes any further moves to ration drugs available on the NHS on grounds of cost rather than clinical effectiveness.

This motion has been signed by a total of 25 MPs.
