HOSPITAL MEALS

Early day motion 1136, tabled 7 March 2008 by Nigel Evans (Conservative). Signed by 17 members.

That this House notes that £3 per patient is spent on meals in hospitals, 70 pence per pupil is spent on meals in schools and up to £12 is spent on meals for prisoners held in police cells; is concerned that these figures are unjust and that the situation is untenable; and calls on the Government to conduct an immediate review of spending priorities in hospitals, schools and prisons.
