Proceeding contribution from Kate Green (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 30 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Health White Paper.


Public Health White Paper

I genuinely welcome the Secretary of State's recognition of the importance of a cross-Government approach to tackling health inequalities. He will be aware that Sir Michael Marmot identified income as one of the most important determinants of health. Will the Secretary of State make representations to his colleagues the Chancellor and the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions to ensure that everyone can have an adequate income, from those reliant on out-of-work benefits to those who are in employment?
