Does Mrs Keen keep us informed? Parliamentary enquiry into diabetes
I've just stumbled across an article on the Putney website..about a Parliamentary enquiry into Diabetic experiences..and inviting sufferers to participate.I am diabetic...and I was just wondering whether Mrs Keen...with her nursing and clinical interests ..at Westminster and Covent Garden would have learned about this and perhaps published some information either on these website..or in the local Press... or even dropped me a line!! Maybe she has???Maybe she is preoccupied with other matters...but I was just wondering if she might have had a BLOG type website where such matters could be publicised."The Hansard Society is invaluable; the place where parliamentary democracy thinks for itself" – Andrew Marr, Political Editor, BBC Diabetes Dialogue @ Tell ParliamentThursday, December 9, 2004The Hansard Society, the All-Party Group (APPG) for Diabetes and sanofi-aventis have launched a timely inquiry into the management of people living with diabetes in the UK, called Diabetes Dialogue.
