"Mr President, the EU Presidency’s Health in all Policies conference took place a week ago. Its main theme was that public health can be promoted through political decision-making in all areas of life, and not just in the health sector. This is all the more true given that it is hard for national economies to postpone addressing health problems until they involve diseases for which they need to start finding cures.
This week, we are voting on reports on improving the ambient air quality. This is just the sort of preventive health work that needs to be undertaken in all policy areas. Our decisions in matters of transport, trade and industry policy, the environment, social planning and social policy always have an impact on public health. It is always best to invest in areas where health hazards can be averted. The European Union has a mandate under the Treaty to work towards this objective in all policy areas."@en1
