Tobacco Control Plan

Debate between Lindsay Hoyle and Alex Cunningham

Thursday 19th July 2018 Commons Chamber

[Alex Cunningham]

Will the Minister give way?

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Sir Lindsay Hoyle)]

It is up to the Minister. He said that he wanted to speak for only one minute.

--- Later in debate ---

[Mr Deputy Speaker]

It was the Minister who suggested that he wanted only one minute in which to sum up. The fact that we are late does not matter to me.

[Alex Cunningham]

Let me tease the Minister on three matters. One, what are we going to do about the “tab houses”? Two, what is his position on cigarette pack inserts? Three, what is he doing to do about the fact that mass media campaign funding has been cut by 90% in the last 10 years? We need that funding in order to be effective.
