Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 25 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Food Products (Marketing to Children) Bill.


Food Products (Marketing to Children) Bill

At the risk of prolonging the unfortunate attempt to talk out the important measure, I want, as secretary of the all-party group on corporate responsibility, to make the opposite point to that raised by the hon. Member for Upminster (Angela Watkinson). Valuable promotions, such as that which I mentioned by Kraft Foods, could easily be excluded from the Bill's provisions because they encourage healthy eating and do not associate the promotion with an unhealthy product.
