Health Bill [HL]

I, too, have been thinking about how what we have been discussing would work in practice. I imagine that only infrequently would a customer ask to see a packet of cigarettes or tin of tobacco because they had not decided what they wanted. It may happen, but I imagine that it is quite rare. If I have understood the Minister correctly, will there be these difficulties in practice? What we are worried about and what the Bill addresses is the daily occurrence of children going into a newsagent to buy their confectionary and seeing in front of them displays of cigarettes. I am trying to think through what the Minister has said.
