Decision Time
Marwick, Tricia NPA Mid Fife and Glenrothes Watch on SPTV
The next question is, that motion S4M-02904, in the name of Shona Robison, on meeting the challenge of physical activity and its contribution to tackling obesity, as amended, be agreed to.

Motion, as amended, agreed to,

That the Parliament notes the detrimental health impact that obesity can have on individuals, including an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some cancers, and the strain that it places on NHS resources and the wider economy; acknowledges the key contribution that physical activity can make to tackling these issues; recognises that, in Scotland, levels of participation in physical activity are increasing, defying the international trend; welcomes the Scottish Government’s commitment to and initiatives promoting and encouraging physical activity across all Scottish communities; notes the scale of the challenge in getting people more active; considers physical activity among children and young people to be a priority; recognises the important role that the design of the built environment, active travel and access to open space have in promoting a culture of informal physical activity; considers improving facilities and reducing costs to users to be preventative spend and key to enhancing participation in sport and physical activity, and supports the drive to create a lasting active legacy for the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
