Health minister Baroness Merron told the Lords on Monday: “This afternoon marks the end of this bill’s journey throughout parliament. It is a landmark bill; it will create a smoke-free generation. “It is, in fact, the biggest public health intervention in a generation, and I can assure all noble Lords it will save lives.” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/smoking-ban-uk-tobacco-vapes-bill-b2961734.html #tobacco #smoking #vaping #ecigarettes #UKlaw #UKpol
