Proceeding contribution from Laurence Robertson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.


Health Bill

Did my hon. Friend discuss secondary smoking with the previous Health Secretary, who said that if smoking were banned in most pubs—as it will be, because most pubs serve food—people would be likely to stay at home to have a drink and smoke? That is exactly where their children are. People have a choice whether to go into a pub, but children do not have a choice about breathing in smoke at home.
