Proceeding contribution from Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.


Health Bill

Does my hon. Friend acknowledge the research by groups such as Action on Smoking and Health which recognises that four in five smokers wish that they did not smoke? We are talking largely about liberty and freedom. Many people think that an addiction is an encumbrance on their freedom and would welcome the opportunity to go to work or to a social setting where smoking is not rammed down their throat and temptation is removed.
