Proceeding contribution from Catherine McKinnell (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
The Secretary of State said in his statement that politicians need ““to stop telling people to make healthy choices”” and actually help them to do it. He said that they need to stop nannying people, but nudge them ““to make healthy lifestyles easier””, and that ““rather than lecturing people…we will give them the support they need to make their own choices””. Can he explain how failing to implement the tobacco display policy is forwarding those aims?
