Proceeding contribution from Lord Stoddart of Swindon (Independent Labour) 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]
Yes, but it is not the nicotine that kills. Nicotine does not cause lung cancer. It may be addictive, but it is not the nicotine that is the problem. It is the materials in the smoke, as I understand it from the medical profession, that cause the problems with lung cancer and other respiratory diseases.
