NATIONAL IMPOTENCE DAY 2003

Early day motion 690, tabled 6 February 2003 by Liam Fox (Conservative). Signed by 43 members.

That this House notes the importance of National Impotence Day and praises the Impotence Association for raising awareness of this significant health problem; is concerned that an estimated one in 10 males over the age of 21 suffers from impotence at some point in their lives; regrets that a number of sufferers do not currently seek medical help as they may be unaware of the current availability of varied effective treatments, they may not know who to approach for treatment or they may simply be too embarrassed; wholeheartedly supports National Impotence Day on Friday 14th February; and hopes that through this day and the efforts and actions of the National Impotence Association awareness of this health problem can be improved and that support for, and research into, impotence will be kept up thereafter.
