I welcome the statement, and particularly the actions that are being taken to deliver parity of esteem between physical and mental health, and to drive improvements on dementia. Those two things are linked by the common frustration of family carers, who feel that their voices are not always heard or...

Anyone assessed as having a certain level of care needs may receive national health service continuing health care. Eligibility is decided after an assessment has been made by a multidisciplinary team using the National Framework for NHS Continuing Healthcare and NHS-Funded Nursing Care. The eligibility criteria for NHS continuing health care are not disease specific.
It is the extent of the individual's assessed primary health care needs, and the care required to meet those needs, rather than the diagnosis, that determine eligibility.
(2) whether his Department has made an estimate of the number of Parkinson's disease and dementia patients who have funded their own care since 2004.

The Department's expenditure on dementia research through the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) and the Department's Policy Research Programme was £18.6 million in 2010-11 and £25.1 million in 2011-12.
In March 2012, the Prime Minister announced as part of the coalition Government's challenge on dementia that the combined value of the NIHR, Medical Research Council and the Economic and Social Research Council
(ESRC) funding for research into dementia will increase from £26.6 million in 2009-10 to an estimated £66.3 million in 2014-15. Three champion groups have been convened to bring together the leading organisations and groups with an interest in dementia to support the delivery of the challenge.
Three meetings of the Better Research Champion Group will be held between June and December 2012 and the frequency of meetings will be reviewed thereafter. The first meeting was held on 8 June 2012, bringing together some of the world's leading dementia scientists to strengthen research coordination and engagement, spanning basic research and translational research. The group will address the challenge of co-ordination and engagement, focusing on the actions needed to strengthen partnerships between research funders, research charities, universities, national health service trusts, providers and the life science industry.
Four new NIHR biomedical research units in dementia are being funded from April 2012:

These research units and NIHR biomedical research centres which include dementia themed research will share their considerable resources and world leading expertise to improve treatment and care.
The NIHR has completed a £17 million call for applied health research on dementia, as part of the programme of work to push further and faster progress in the prevention, treatment and cure of dementia. A full list of successful research bids will be announced soon.
The ESRC and NIHR will be working together to support an initiative with up to £13 million funding available for social science research on dementia. The call for proposals will open in the week commencing 9 July and will fund national or international social science research in dementia which can make a significant contribution to scientific, economic and social impact.

Responsibility for healthcare in Northern Ireland is devolved and funding is a matter for the Northern Ireland Assembly.
The combined value of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), Medical Research Council (MRC) and the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) funding for research into dementia will increase from £26.6 million in 2009-10 to an estimated £66.3 million in 2014-15.
The Department is responsible for health research in England and funds research through the NIHR. MRC and ESRC funding is available throughout the United Kingdom, and allocation is subject to open competition and peer review.

These research units and NIHR biomedical research centres which include dementia themed research will share their considerable resources and world leading expertise to improve treatment and care.
Projects will be funded resulting from the recent NIHR themed call in dementia. The participating programmes are:
Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation
Health Services Research
Health Technology Assessment
Programme Grants for Applied Research
Public Health Research
Research for Patient Benefit
Service Delivery and Organisation.
The ESRC and NIHR will be working together to support an initiative with up to £13 million funding available for social science research on dementia. The call for proposals will open in the week commencing 9 July and will fund national or international social science research in dementia which can make a significant contribution to scientific, economic and social impact.
Additional work will be supported by the funders depending on the volume and quality of applications received.

The Minister is right: it would be invidious to suggest such a reallocation. But people who are planning to attend his summit want to know whether there is any new cash on the table that they can make a case for being put into research in future.

One of the comments that is often made to me about respite care is that access almost needs to be on demand. It needs to be there when people need it, not at some point that is convenient for the agencies that provide it.

The hon. Gentleman is absolutely right. The report, to which he put his name, says that such drugs should be a last resort. The problem is that in too many places—we do not know the precise numbers; we know only that it happens in too many places—it is often not...
