Tobacco and Vapes Bill – in a Public Bill Committee at 11:00 am on 14 May 2024.
Andrea Leadsom
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
This Clause states that when regulations are made under part 4 of the Bill—on tobacco, vaping and nicotine product requirements—the requirements could be applied to the Crown in the same way as the measures in part 1 of the Bill explicitly apply to the Crown. It is a standard clause that enables any regulations made under part 4 of the Bill to apply to the Crown in the same way as the measures in part 1. I commend the clause to the Committee.
Preet Kaur Gill
Shadow Minister (Primary Care and Public Health)
As with part 1, we have no objections to raise about this Clause.
A parliamentary bill is divided into sections called clauses.
Printed in the margin next to each clause is a brief explanatory `side-note' giving details of what the effect of the clause will be.
During the committee stage of a bill, MPs examine these clauses in detail and may introduce new clauses of their own or table amendments to the existing clauses.
When a bill becomes an Act of Parliament, clauses become known as sections.
