Under 16s Warning Notices In Tobacco Retail Outlets

EDM number 846 in 1992-93, proposed by John Carlisle on 16/11/1992.

That this House notes the widespread concern expressed by members of the retail trade about the proposed size of the warning notice to implement Clause 4 of the Children and Young Persons (Protection from Tobacco) Act 1992; urges the Secretary of State for Health to recognise that in this matter the retailers are already liable to pay larger fines if the law is broken; and asks therefore, that she take into account the advice she has received and adopt a more practical notice.

This motion has been signed by a total of 35 MPs.
