No, most Type2 do not get prescribed meters or test strips on the NHS. Type 1 do not all get then either.
Type 1 have been getting test strips for years now. (Not necessarily for the meters we'd prefer, admittedly.) Not usually meters, but they're usually cheap enough nowadays and I'm sure anyone who needed one could get something through a DSN (manufacturers are usually fine giving away meters when there's a chance of some prescribed test strips).
