Labour — Stroud

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 July 2025

Debate

Children’s Health

Contribution

I will not keep hon. Members long; I know it is late on a Thursday and people want to get back to their constituencies. I thank all hon. Members, including the Minister and Opposition Members, for staying and giving excellent speeches. If we get children’s health right, it will bring a whole lifetime of benefits. That is why child health is so important. It is about getting them to do regular exercise, which will continue for life, and to have a decent diet, which will also continue for life, making them the healthiest generation we have ever known, so I thank Members and the Minister very much. Question put and agreed to. Resolved, That this House has considered children’s health.
