Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

EDM number 1341 in 2001-02, proposed by Kevin Brennan on 20/05/2002.

That this House acknowledges the need to raise awareness of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy the most common, progressive and deadliest type of muscular dystrophy which affects one in 3500 boys worldwide and is a major genetic child-killer; commends the work of the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign and welcomes the establishment of Parent Project UK, a foundation and campaigning group set up and managed by parents and children with DMD; further welcomes recent breakthroughs in genetic and stem-cell research; and calls upon the Government to devote greater levels of funding to research into DMD, capitalising on increasing knowledge of the human genetic code, in an attempt to find a cure for this fatal muscle wasting condition.

This motion has been signed by a total of 98 MPs.
