To ask the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he has any plans to increase spending on the Look After Your Heart campaign; and if he will make a statement.

Government funding of the Look After Your Heart campaign was £420,000 in 1986–87 and £1·5 million in 1987–88. We are increasing this further in 1988–89 to £1·8 million to which, in addition, the Health Education Authority will be contributing £2 million. We have a continuing commitment to this vital campaign, which aims, in the longer term, to bring about a significant reduction in the unacceptable level of premature death from coronary heart disease.
