Links to the Scottish Government & Greater Glasgow HB respond to Diabetes UK Scotland

Sorry in advance if this has already been covered.

These are links to the Scottish Government and Glasgow Health Boards reponse to the Diabete's UK Petition for insulin pumps (Scotland)

Interesting that I attended a meeting at Yorkhill Hospital today, and was told that Glasgow has over 600 type 1 kids on the books, but will fund only 15 pumps per year.

Postcode lottery indeed.
