HC Deb 14 October 1996 vol 282 c749W
Mr. Dafis

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will list the studies(a) commissioned and (b) evaluated by his Department into the impact of climate changes on the health of the United Kingdom population. [40071]

Mr. Horam

The Department has not commissioned any research which is directly related to the impact of climate change on health. However, we are considering the findings of the climate change impacts review group which identified some possible health effects. In the light of the outcome of this consideration and on-going research we will review our programmes and research requirements.
