Proceeding contribution from Greg Mulholland (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 November 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.
Health and Social Care Bill
Surely the genuine concern is about pregnant women's diet. All the health evidence shows that that must be tackled early in pregnancy or even before pregnancy to have an impact. All the social evidence shows that the most concern is about those on the least income—the most disadvantaged. Why, therefore, are we considering a one-off payment late in pregnancy rather than extending the healthy start scheme, or doing both?
