lpv:spoken text	"I wish to thank the Council for the reply. Can I ask the Council what its attitude is in relation to the tube-feeding of patients with Alzheimer’s, which is a widespread practice in the United Kingdom and Ireland? I do not know about the rest of Europe. What we are talking about is feeding a tube into the abdomen. The Council spoke about guidelines. Guidelines and standards are very important, but the justification for this particular procedure is that it gives the patient sufficient nourishment in order to ensure that, even though they have dementia – they have refused food and so on – that they will actually live, but to me, there is something very bizarre about it. What is your attitude to it, and are you going to set down standards?"@en1
