HC Deb 05 May 1993 vol 224 c89W
Mr. Kevin Hughes

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if she will make a statement on progress towards "The Health of the Nation" targets.

Mr. Sackville

"The Health of the Nation" is a long-term strategy, with many of its targets for the year 2000 and beyond. The mechanisms are in place to meet the targets. All national health service regions have implementation plans and a wide range of other bodies are now actively working together to bring about improvements in health.
