Proceeding contribution from Andrew Murrison (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 February 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Public Health (England).


Public Health (England)

I am not sure about anecdotal evidence. I will discuss evidence-based public health shortly, so if the hon. Lady will wait, perhaps we will talk a bit more about anecdote versus evidence, and I hope that my remarks will address her concerns. I understand that she has experience from her constituency, and the hon. Member for Slough (Fiona Mactaggart) mentioned evidence from her constituency, too. However, we have to consider public health across the country, and the evidence on that is clear.
