Clive Efford: To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on the supply of insulin pumps to people with
uncontrolled diabetes. [12548]
Ms Blears: We announced on 31 July that we were referring insulin pump therapy to the National Institute for Clinical Excellence for
appraisal. The institute appraises the clinical and cost effectiveness of treatments and issues authoritative, evidence-based
guidance to the national health service, to help to deliver equity of access to effective treatments wherever patients may live.

Clive Efford: To ask the Secretary of State for Health which primary care trusts receive funding centrally at an (a) regional and
(b) sub-regional level to meet the cost of expensive drugs or treatment. [13266]
Ms Blears: The Department makes unified allocations annually to health authorities. Health authorities then allocate resources
directly to their primary care groups/ trusts within national guidelines.
Health authorities in partnership with PCG/Ts and other local stakeholders determine how best to use their funds to meet national
and local priorities for improving health, tackling health inequalities and modernising services. PCTs do not therefore receive
direct funding from the Department for specific drugs or treatments.
