What it asks
Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to conduct an immediate review into the provision of insulin pump therapy (CSII) in Scotland in order to address the low and inequitable access across the country.
What the petitioner did first
Diabetes UK Scotland has pursued numerous avenues on this subject. These include working with David Stewart and other MSPs to submit several parliamentary questions and initiate two members’ debates, in May 2008 and September 2009. At local health board level, we have met with Greater Glasgow and Clyde Health Board to discuss the issue. We have been highlighting the issue in both print and broadcast media, with GMTV, The Herald and The Evening Times among those covering the issue in a high profile way. We have produced and widely distributed a booklet, Insulin Pumps: A New Lease for Life to publicise, which was sent to MSPs, healthcare professionals and health boards among others.
