Proceeding contribution from Sally Keeble (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 June 2009. It occurred during Topical debate on The Economy (Supporting Business).


The Economy (Supporting Business)

There is clear medical evidence that if we support women during pregnancy, particularly with food, for which they need money, the outcome for babies is improved. In particular, doing so tackles the problem of low-birthweight babies, which is a problem in some of our inner cities. That measure is a practical way of tackling that problem.
