answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/02/2018 answer text <p>The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is an independent body and develops its guidance based on a thorough assessment of the available evidence and in consultation with stakeholders. The Department is a stakeholder in the development of NICE’s guidance, but has no direct influence over its recommendations. Its revised guidance on the diagnosis and management of chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis is due for publication in October 2020. Registered stakeholders are encouraged to respond to consultations. However, the guideline is also clear that there is no one form of treatment to suit every patient. Treatment approaches will not be appropriate for all patients and the needs and preferences of patients should be taken into account.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 28/02/2018 17:24:11 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
