§ Mr. ForthTo ask the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will modify his policy on cancer prevention to take account of the European Commission's recent conclusion on the contributory role of diet, alcohol and tobacco in causing cancer.
§ Mrs. CurrieRecommendations on smoking, alcohol and diet in the European code against cancer are entirely consistent with our own preventive strategies. The European code, together with information on cancer prevention, will be widely publicised during European cancer week, 1–7 May 1988, and European cancer year in 1989.
