Motion text

That this House congratulates SADS UK on organising, training and donating 17 automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to schools in the UK; notes that a recent study by the American Heart Association shows that, on average, for every 111 pupils in a school, there is at least one school-based cardiac arrest each year; and therefore calls on the Government to bring forward a strategy for including AEDs in all schools to help save lives.
