PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
INFLAMMATORY ARTHRITIS (13 December 2005)

That this House welcomes the launch of the new All Party Parliamentary Group on Inflammatory Arthritis; recognises that over 750,000 people in the UK are living with a form of inflammatory arthritis; supports all efforts to raise awareness of a range of "Everyday Everests" - which are everyday activities which inflammatory arthritis patients find difficult or impossible to carry out; believes that the disease deserves a higher public profile; calls on all parliamentarians to help prioritise this worthwhile cause; and urges the Government to take action to improve the lives of the thousands of people around the country affected by inflammatory arthritis.
