Clause 1 - Prohibition of tobacco advertising
Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Bill
3:00 pm
Ms Yvette Cooper (Parliamentary Secretary (Public Health), Department of Health; Pontefract and Castleford, Labour)
The Bill covers distribution of tobacco advertisements in this country. We shall discuss this complex area in detail when we debate the sponsorship part of the Bill. We will then have the opportunity to spell out the matter in considerable detail. The clause deals with what happens in the course of a business; it is not intended to prevent members of the public, journalists, writers or others from talking about tobacco products.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 2, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
