HC Deb 23 May 1994 vol 244 cc34-5W
Mr. Alfred Morris

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what input other Government Departments will have into the new working party on inequalities and health; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Sackville

The recently established sub-group of the Chief Medical Officer's "Health of the Nation" working group will be looking at variations in health. The sub-group's terms of reference focus on the provision of practical advice to the Department of Health and the national health service but other Government Departments are being kept informed of its work.
