Clause 4 - Advertising: exclusions
Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Bill

Mrs Caroline Spelman (Meriden, Conservative)
I hear what the Minister says and her argument relates in particular to the bulk sales of cigarette manufacturers. However, she has not dealt with the plight of small specialists. The Bill contains no nod in their direction and is going to be most harmful for them. We have no desire to create a massive loophole that will undermine the agreed target of reduced prevalence, but the position of tobacco specialists is difficult.
