I thank the First Minister for that response. Does he agree that, in addition to improving the quality of care for patients living with epilepsy, speciality epilepsy nurses can also reduce costs to the NHS, by reducing the call on consultants’ time, on hospital admissions and emergency readmissions? And would he encourage local health boards to actively develop investment cases to employ more specialist epilepsy nurses?
