Proceeding contribution from Baroness Tonge (Liberal Democrat) 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]
This morning I called in to my local tobacconist/newsagent. He was standing outside the shop, smoking a cigarette and having a break and I discussed this with him. In particular we discussed the inconvenience and expense of putting up gantries or at least keeping tobacco out of sight. He said, "I have already got one. This does not bother me at all. I have got one that at the moment I use for security purposes. If I need to go out to the back for anything I pull it down, and at night I certainly pull it down. I cannot see what the problem is. It would not bother me".
