UNIVERSAL TREATMENT ACCESS FOR PEOPLE WITH HIV/AIDS

Motion Text

That this House welcomes the public recognition by G8 Finance Ministers that `tackling diseases that undermine growth and exacerbate poverty in developing countries will require not only strengthened health systems, but also improved treatment, including universal access for AIDS treatment by 2010'; notes that a target without the necessary resources will not be realised; and calls upon the Government to do all it can to ensure that the G8 countries provide sufficient additional money to fund universal access to treatment for people living with HIV/AIDS in the developing world.
