John Rafferty will re-introduce his bill to combat Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder in Parliament.
The New Democrat MP for Thunder Bay-Rainy River is calling for a national strategy on the disorder. Bill C-227 would commit the federal government to developing a strategy for treatment and prevention.
“FASD is a serious, but entirely preventable, public health issue and a national strategy is long overdue,” Rafferty said.
“I’ve always been concerned about FASD, and continue to have meetings with constituents who have worked to educate me and further my knowledge about the issue.”
The bill will not be debated before the next federal election.
