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, the noble Lord has made a statement about the importance of cross-government working, and I strongly suggest that there should be cross-government accountability on this issue. The Department of Health has a serious contribution to make. But if it leads on this without the accountability of other government departments, we will not excel at the speed that the Foresight report suggests.
