VACCINATING CHILDREN AGAINST TB

Motion Text

That this House notes with concern the Government's proposals to vaccinate against tuberculosis only those children living in a high risk area; further notes that as children from low-risk areas grow up they may well move to high risk areas; considers the proposals to be short-sighted and detrimental to the future health of the population; and calls on the Government to look again at its plans on this matter.
