Proceeding contribution from Lord Judd (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 9 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill [HL].


Health Bill [HL]

What I thought I heard the noble Baroness say in her earlier intervention was a very important contribution to the debate. If one is to have a successful strategy, one needs to concentrate hard on promoting health and well-being so that people identify with having a better quality of life. It should not just be telling people what they cannot do, but showing them how much better their lives could be. A positive element must run through this, and again that is the argument in favour of a strategic approach.
