Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 October 2025

Debate

Tobacco and Vapes Bill

Contribution

We want to make sure that the widest possible range of people who are impacted by this legislation is taken into account. As we said at an earlier stage of our deliberations, we are concerned that many of these voices have not been listened to. Their views have not been reflected, or they feel excluded altogether, so the risk is that we legislate with good intentions but in ways that inadvertently cause serious and unnecessary harm to legitimate businesses—and in a way that runs contrary to the intentions of the Bill.
