Proceeding contribution from Kevin Barron (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 April 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Cigarette Packaging.
Cigarette Packaging
I congratulate my hon. Friend on securing this debate. Some countries have managed to deal with counterfeiting quite well. There are barcodes on all cigarette packages; the problem is the policing of them. Counterfeit cigarettes are not all sold out of car boots, as they are sold in some retail outlets, too. We need enforcement in those areas and to confiscate any smuggled cigarettes.
