Health Bill

Proceeding contribution from Helen Jones (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bills on Health Bill.
: I accept that the Bill is a great step forward. I feel a bit like a bag of ailments this afternoon—as well as being short-sighted, I am asthmatic. Breathing in second-hand smoke doubles the chances of an adult developing asthma and inhibits the action of the drugs that are used to control asthma. Can my right hon. Friend explain why someone who works in a pub that does not serve food should be exposed to that risk, when someone who works in a different establishment is not exposed to it?
