Member for Streatham on 2 March 2021 and the Hon. Member for Kingston upon Hull West and Hessle on 25 March 2021.</p><p>The reply suggested that NHS England and Improvement was developing a case definition and model of care for children with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH).</p><p>The correct response was that NHSEI had run an initial workshop on Long COVID to discuss how best to develop a case definition and model of care for children at which the RCPCH was present.</p><p>The response was phased in a way that overstated the role of the RCPCH in producing clinical guidance. NICE is responsible for developing the clinical case definition of Long COVID.</p><p>I would like to thank the RCPCH and its members for their contributions more broadly in improving the understanding of Long COVID in children.</p>","house":"Commons","noticeNumber":5,"hasAttachments":false,"hasLinkedStatements":false,"linkedStatements":null,"attachments":[]},"links":[{"rel":"self","href":"/Statements/1352739","method":"GET"}]}
