Vikki Slade

Liberal Democrat — Mid Dorset and North Poole

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 November 2024

Debate

Tobacco and Vapes Bill

Contribution

Does the hon. Gentleman agree that the upper-age escalator could prove difficult later on, particularly in respect of the ability of those who sell tobacco? At the moment, if a young person sells alcohol, they have to get a supervisor who is older to allow it. When the people selling alcohol are in their thirties, but were born after 2009, and everyone else in the shop is in their thirties, who will be allowed to sell the tobacco? Does he have any thoughts on that?
