question text |
To ask Her Majesty’s Government, in the light of a statement on the <i>Guardian</i>
website on 31 October that an article on the approval of non-invasive prenatal testing
(NIPT) had to be amended to correct a statement that the Nuffield Council on Bioethics
had confirmed in July that no new ethical issues were raised by NIPT, what statements
the Department of Health made to the <i>Guardian</i> or its reporters which led the
<i>Guardian</i> to that understanding; whether the Department of Health understood
this to be the case at the time of those statements; and if so, why.
