I thank the Minister for giving way; she is being generous in taking interventions. In answer to the question posed by the hon. Member for Dartford (Dr. Stoate) about the importance of health inequalities, can she explain why all the evidence—including the Government’s answers to certain questions—shows that health inequalities...
