Tackling child obesity (2006)
first steps
The government could miss a key target to halt the rise of obesity in children by 2010 unless it improves leadership at all levels, this report says. Obesity costs the National Health Service one billion pounds per year and in 2003 13.7 percent of youngsters were obese. The report by the National Audit Office, the Healthcare Commission and the Audit Commission said greater clarity and direction was needed by the government to halt the rise of obesity.
