Proceeding contribution from Kevin Barron (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 February 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Public Health (England).
Public Health (England)
They are widening now because there are greater opportunities. Those who are able, and have always have been able, to make better choices for themselves and their families are doing so more frequently because they have the opportunity. That does not mean, however, that the health of everybody is not improving. I do not deny that we need to look at what is happening to the less well-off, and this Government are doing so. I am not saying that we do not need to do anything more.
