Debate between Martin Wrigley and Andrew Gwynne

Tuesday 19th November 2024 Commons Chamber

[Andrew Gwynne]

We will confirm the 2025-26 local authority public health grant allocations in due course. Local government plays a critical role in delivering the Government’s health mission and driving action on the prevention of ill health. We are committed to working in partnership with local government to tackle the wider determinants of ill health.

[Martin Wrigley (Newton Abbot) (LD)]
