HANDWASHING WITH SOAP

That this House commends the good work done by the Global Partnership for Handwashing with Soap; notes that handwashing is the single most cost effective method to reduce the spread of infections and diseases; is concerned by figures from the British Medical Journal which show that only 34 per cent. of men and 58 per cent. of women wash their hands after using the toilet; notes that effective handwashing would have reduced the spread of E coli following the recent outbreak in Scotland; and calls on the Government to back a new awareness campaign and to work with soap producers and health experts to raise the awareness of the importance of handwashing with soap in the UK.
