Proceeding contribution from Lord Naseby (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 5 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Health Bill [HL].


Health Bill [HL]

That is nonsense. There is an existing provision; we have 50 outlets; the age group who go in to the outlets are in their mid-30s or beyond, into their 70s. In any case, the ministry is consulting. No young people go into those shops. I suppose someone sitting in the ministry wants to achieve this for pure tidiness, but it is nonsense and I hope that the Government will think about the provision once again before Report and perhaps withdraw it.
