Answer

My officials have now completed the analysis of the consultation responses received to the Reshaping Stroke Care consultation. In addition to the consultation analysis, I have asked my officials to conduct some further analysis regarding the staffing requirements for the hyperacute stroke network proposed in the consultation and this work is currently underway. I intend to consider this analysis, alongside the consultation responses and the wider evidence base in reaching my decisions. I will update the House accordingly in due course.
