National M.e.centre

EDM number 1842 in 2001-02, proposed by Andrew Rosindell on 31/10/2002.

That this House expresses concern that even after the Chief Medical Officer's report in January no resources have been allocated for research and treatment of ME - an illness that seriously affects the lives of more than one million sufferers, including children and adults with responsibilities for young families; further notes that ME is a disease with symptoms that include intense muscle and joint pains, headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, emotional and mental disturbances and serious loss of energy; and commends the work of Professor Findlay and Karen Walsh of the National ME Centre in Havering, which has operated as a support charity for the last 10 years.

This motion has been signed by a total of 35 MPs.
