Motion Text
That this House is aware that smoking remains the biggest preventable cause of death in the UK, which kills around 100,000 users in the UK every year; is therefore concerned that the Stop Smoking Services within the public health system are now under threat because of cuts in health funding; and urges the Government to seriously consider Cancer Research UK's call to introduce a levy to supplement the excellent range of services available which are designed to move people away from such unhealthy habits.
