That this House is deeply concerned that tobacco companies are aggressively targeting women and children in the Third World with marketing tactics which are being banned in Europe; is concerned that the projected number of deaths from smoking-related diseases in the Third World will rise from one million per year to seven million per year by the year 2030; notes the European Union directive banning tobacco advertising, sponsorship and promotion; and believes that the Government should include a firm commitment to global standards on the marketing of tobacco in the forthcoming White Paper on Tobacco so that the same basic rules apply to tobacco companies wherever they operate.

That this House pays tribute to the 640,000 women who served in the armed forces during the Second World War; acknowledges the invaluable contribution made by others who served in the Land Army; munitions factories, fire brigades and other wartime occupations; expresses concern at the lack of public recognition of the difficult and dangerous tasks undertaken by the servicewomen, which included flying unarmed planes across the Atlantic and Europe, staffing ack-ack gun sites in support of the Allied war effort and working behind enemy lines in the Special Operations Executive; recognises that their contribution played an essential part in defeating Nazism; notes that Canada, Australia and the USA have national memorials to their World War Two servicewomen; supports the Royal Artillery Association campaign for a United Kingdom memorial to the brave servicewomen who fought for this country during the Second World War; recognises that the cost of erecting war memorials is traditionally borne by public subscription; and calls on the Government to do everything possible to locate a suitable and prominent position for a World War Two United Kingdom servicewomen's memorial.
