Proceeding contribution from Simon Burns (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 12 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sunbeds (Regulation) Bill.


Sunbeds (Regulation) Bill

I am grateful to my hon. Friend, who is generous in giving way. I am a bit confused, however. He is making a powerful case, from his point of view, about 16 to 18-year-olds, but if we look at his amendment 8 we see, surprisingly, that he proposes to remove from the Bill the exemptions relating to the use of sunbeds for medical purposes, yet part of clause 3 specifically provides that people under 18 who are based in a medical establishment will be allowed to use a sunbed. Is there not a contradiction there?
