HOUSE OF COMMONS LONDON SWlA OAA The Rt Hon Theresa May MP Prime Minister 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA 16 May 2019 Dear Prime Minister A year has passed since you told the House that you wanted to see a speedy resolution for people with cystic fibrosis in getting access to life-saving drugs. Since then those affected by this life-limiting condition have continued to watch their health decline and too many have lost their lives prematurely. You will appreciate that hope wears terribly thin for thousands of people with the condition and their families, and they feel marginalised and forgotten. Will you please update the House at the Westminster Hall debate set for Monday 10 June 2019 by describing all the efforts the Government can and will make to settle this desperate situation so that people with cystic fibrosis know they will not see another year pass where they are denied access to the most advanced medicines to treat their condition. We would be very grateful if you could set out what is being done to address these concerns.
