The question
To ask the Scottish Executive what further progress has been made in response to the campaign championed by Ryan McLaughlin with regard to the importance of taking vitamin D supplements to combat multiple sclerosis and potentially other illnesses.
The answer
We are working closely with the McLaughlin family and the Multiple Sclerosis Society to support a summit on vitamin D. Unfortunately the summit was postponed in May because of the volcanic ash, but has been rescheduled for 21 September 2010.
In addition we are working with our partners to raise public awareness of the importance of vitamin D.
