I wish to ask the Minister about the position regarding the funding of continuous glucose-monitoring sensors for people with type 2 diabetes. My reading of the situation is that this technology is amazing and makes a huge difference to the quality of people's lives. They feel better and can perform better. It is really effective. I understand that a change was made to the scheme last Christmas whereby people with type 2 diabetes who had been involved previously are not now. I would like the Minister's comments on this.
