Mr. Burstow
To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many specialist neurological nurses there were in each NHS region for (a) TIA, (b) epilepsy, (c) multiple sclerosis, (d) movement disorder, (e) head injury, (f) Parkinson's and (g) Alzheimer's in (i) 1997–98 and (ii) the most recent year for which figures are available. [121621]
Mr. Hutton
The information requested is not collected centrally. The non-medical workforce census collects information annually on the number of nurses employed in the national health service as at 30 September each year, but can not distinguish those who are specialist neurological nurses.
