Diane raises public health issues at Health Questions

08 Mar 2011
Ms Diane Abbott (Hackney North and Stoke Newington) (Lab): Does the Secretary of State accept that the public could be forgiven for worrying that things will get worse, rather than better, in relation to public health? That is true of his health reforms across the piece, partly because, as we know, some local authorities are already cutting public expenditure given the budget cuts that they have to make, but also because of the difficulty in effectively ring-fencing the new funds that will be given to local authorities in due course.
