NATIONAL ALLERGY WEEK 17-21 MAY

Early day motion 1074, tabled 28 April 2004 by Jon Cruddas (Labour). Signed by 78 members.

That this House supports National Allergy Week and its aims of drawing attention to the needs of the 18 million people in Britain who suffer from allergy; notes with great concern, that with the anniversary approaching of the publication of the Royal College of Physicians report, Allergy: the Unmet Need, which documents the existence of an allergy epidemic and makes constructive proposals for how the NHS should respond, the Government is ignoring the advice of the Royal College; and calls on the Government to address the specifics of the case for the development of an effective allergy service within the NHS.

Signatures by party: Labour 45, Liberal Democrat 16, Conservative 10, Labour/Co-operative 4, DUP 2, UUP 1.
