Part of Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister – in the House of Commons at 11:30 am on 9 February 2005.

Does he remember reiterating his support in the House both in 1999 and in 2001, and does he realise that many thousands of sufferers spend their entire lives struggling to live on expensive medicine? It was his words that gave them hope, and delivery is now a matter of trust.
