Health and Care Bill

Proceeding contribution from Catherine West (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 22 November 2021. It occurred during Debate on bills on Health and Care Bill.

I thank the shadow Minister, who is making an excellent argument, and colleagues across the House for all their work on this important Bill. Does he agree that we could do an enormous amount for the health of the nation by looking holistically at the role of exercise and prescribing exercise through the national health service, including swimming—the statistics on 11-year-olds who can swim 25 metres are going backwards due to all the lessons they have missed during coronavirus—and other important sports?
