Proceeding contribution from Lord Darzi of Denham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 October 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Obesity.
Obesity
My Lords, I agree with the noble Lord in some of his suggestions on sports activities and the entertainment provided by the media, which preoccupies the whole household and not just children. It is an issue that I have no doubt we need to address in partnership with the media and other TV providers. There is some early evidence to suggest that some of them could, if they were structured in the right way, enhance playing and exercise activities. In other words, the media could spread good practice rather than just providing something to watch, which most of us have been concerned about as parents.
