16. Mr. Coombs

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what plans he has to seek to reduce the incidence of coronary heart disease among the Asian communities.

This country has one of the worst rates of premature death from coronary heart disease in the world. We are determined to improve the situation for all our people. We are planning a major heart disease prevention campaign, to be launched next spring, directed at all sections of the community.
