Proceeding contribution from Lord Palmer (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 4 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.


Health Bill

My Lords, I have put my name to this amendment tabled by my noble friend Lord Monson. I could not agree more with him. It is the degree of inconsistency of the Government’s smoking policy—in that one is allowed to smoke in old people’s homes and in prisons but not elsewhere—that seems so extraordinary. I hope that the Minister will accept this very small amendment.
