Motion Text

That this House acknowledges the benefit that hundreds of thousands of people across the United Kingdom have derived from their treatment by complementary medicine; understands that in most instances it is genuinely complementary to the more traditional methods of treatment; and calls upon the Government actively to pursue a policy of promoting complementary treatment on the National Health Service, where appropriate, for patients who find it beneficial.
