Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Bill [Lords]
4:30 pm
Dr Evan Harris (Oxford West and Abingdon, Liberal Democrat)
The hon. Gentleman said that the scrutiny that the measure received in the previous Parliament was irrelevant. Does he believe that anything of relevance can be gleaned from deliberations on what are in many cases the same words in the same order in the same clauses? I understand his constitutional point about the need to go through all the stages again, but is he suggesting that nothing of relevance can be learned from discussions on the same words just over a year ago?
