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

My hand is always on my heart. We had a debate in the Government on how best to implement our manifesto promise, just as we will have a debate this afternoon and in Committee, but I stress that Labour Members are completely committed to legislating for public health and for a smoking ban to strengthen the provision of smoke-free places.
