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

Public Health White Paper

My hon. Friend is absolutely right. The truth is that we know we have to take action nationally, and we will, not only through health protection but through much more effective health screening, immunisation programmes and an early start in the health visitor programme, for example. It will be for his local authorities and communities to get together to ask how they can address the inequalities. That will be vital to achieving health improvement in his community.
