HIV Prevention Services In London

EDM number 1586 in 2006-07, proposed by Diane Abbott on 04/06/2007.

That this House recognises that, as reported by the Health Protection Agency, the current provision for HIV prevention in London has been having a positive impact; notes that this has been achieved in the context of a steep rise in infection rates outside London; further notes with concern that the current provisions for HIV prevention are to be reorganised and replaced by a new system which has been criticised by many organisations working within the HIV sector; and thus calls upon the Government to take on board the criticisms made during the consultation process to ensure that any reorganisation of services builds on the positive work already done in this area, as well as the support of the community.

This motion has been signed by a total of 31 MPs.
