Mr. Tom Clarke
To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will take steps to improve the provision of speech therapy to primary school children in Twechar; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Michael Forsyth
The provision of speech therapy services in any particular area is a matter for the relevant health board to determine in the light of its own assessment of needs and its priorities within the available resources. I understand that the hon. Member recently met the chairman and senior officials of the Greater Glasgow health board to discuss speech therapy services.
