Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill [Lords].
Health Bill [Lords]
I am grateful to the hon. Lady for giving way, particularly as I have only just returned to the Chamber. She cites a lack of evidence in relation to point-of-sale displays and prevalent traits of smoking in young people, but studies of groups of as many as 25,000 people have shown that the 15-year-olds who are most exposed to point-of-sale displays are three times as likely to smoke as the rest of that age group, and that the effect of such exposure is even stronger than that of parental smoking in the family.
