Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 March 2026

Debate

Tobacco and Vapes Bill

Contribution

One would hope that even the most stringent supporters of the Bill would see that what these amendments are proposing is a very constructive form of targeted, controlled, limited and effective communication that will not only help the UK drive down smoking rates and limit the exposure of children to any marketing of these products, but at the same time safeguard the interests of the hospitality sector. Should it transpire that these measures turn out to be flawed or ineffective, consultation with the industry could eliminate any issues or omissions.
