What they’ve said
“…There have been some welcome developments recently with regard to ME. The Government’s ME/CFS delivery plan, published in July last year, was an important step. It finally recognises the needs of people with ME and has signalled a greater willingness to address an illness that has been neglected for so long.”

“My Lords, I have a long-standing interest in ME—chronic fatigue syndrome—having seen at first hand its awful impacts on people’s lives. It is good to be able to say something this evening, because today we saw the publication of the long-awaited delivery plan on ME. It is very welcome to see that.”
