Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of a national fast-track pathway for people with motor neurone disease on waiting times for social care assessments in (i) Buckinghamshire and (ii) Milton Keynes.

We continue to work with local authorities and other delivery partners to understand the capacity, workforce, and wider support required to deliver a fast-track pathway for people with motor neurone disease as we develop that pathway.
