Lord Moylan (Con)

My Lords, I am grateful for the support for my amendment from all parties. I am grateful for the sympathetic tone expressed by the Minister as well. Obviously I was not expecting a very full answer at this stage, having sprung it on her to some extent in the way that I did. I just remind her that, although there may be commercial advantage—I do not know about that—she could meet Allen Carr in its capacity as a NICE-recommended service. She also has considerable power over the local stop smoking services, not simply through regulation but also through the conditions that she can attach to funding. I think I heard her say that she will reflect a little bit further on this and possibly write, but, in the meantime, I am grateful for what she says. I do not think the subject will necessarily stop today, but I think we could take it out of the Bill if she wanted to or we could possibly bring it back later. I think it would be helpful if she was given the space now to give some further thought to it and see whether the department felt that there was an opportunity here for it to do something. In the meantime, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
