WHITEHOUSE CONSULTANCY AND OBESITY WEEK

Early day motion 925A1, tabled 13 January 2014 by Rob Flello (Labour). Signed by 3 members.

leave out from 'House' to end and insert 'welcomes the launch of National Obesity Awareness Week to promote awareness of the scale of the problem of obesity and to galvanise action in response; acknowledges the very wide range of support this exciting project has revealed from many worthwhile organisations including the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Adult and Childhood Obesity to which the Whitehouse Consultancy provides support on an unpaid basis; regrets the inaccurate and unsubstantiated claims made in the original wording of this Motion as originally tabled; observes that all those hon. Members who had formerly been listed as Patrons of the Obesity Awareness and Solutions Trust had given permission in writing to be so listed and that the charity did the nation a great service by making obesity an issue of political and economic importance; and welcomes the contribution that many public affairs companies make to the democratic life of our nation both on behalf of their commercial clients when acting in accordance with the principles of openness and transparency, and on occasion in a pro bono capacity for a variety of worthy causes.'.
