Proceeding contribution from Patricia Hewitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.


Health Bill

I am not going to take further interventions because I wish to turn to another very important matter—part 1 of the Bill, on smoke-free places. The provisions that we are introducing in part 1, which extend to England and Wales, fulfil the commitment that we made last year, in the ““Choosing Health”” White Paper, to legislate to shift the balance significantly in favour of smoke-free environments.
