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

In his liberal Conservatism, the right hon. Gentleman—who usually talks more sense than he is talking now—predicates his entire argument on the idea that smokers can come to a voluntary decision. They are smokers because they are addicts, and we owe it to addicts to help them break their addiction.
