Proceeding contribution from Baroness Walmsley (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 27 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Child Poverty Bill.


Child Poverty Bill

My Lords, may I simply observe that when we become a society that does not feel it necessary to specify that health includes mental health as well as physical health, we will have become one that gives mental health the appropriate attention and resourcing that it deserves.
