Finance (No. 2) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Caroline Johnson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 April 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance (No. 2) Bill.

As a consultant paediatrician I have seen and treated a number of children with obesity and seen the health consequences of this growing problem. Does my hon. Friend agree that this tax is a useful part of the Government’s programme but only part of a much wider programme to tackle obesity, and that education will ultimately be the major part?
