Mr. Peter Robinson
asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will give his best estimates of the number of diabetics in Northern Ireland in each of the past three years.
Mr. John Patten
The number of insulin dependent diabetics in Northern Ireland remains fairly constant, at about 5,250. There are thought to be at least 5 times this number of non insulin dependent diabetics.
