Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what funding has been allocated in the financial year 2025-26 to expand regional (a) neurological emergency networks and (b) tele-neurology services.

There is no formal structure or funding for neurological emergency networks. The acute neurology guidance forming part of the NHS England integrated care system neurology toolkit provides guidance on the organisation of services to ensure patients admitted to acute medical units are able to access neurological advice where necessary. Tele-neurology is available across the country as required.
