In the light of the well informed comments from the noble Lords, Lord Borrie and Lord Naseby, would it not be helpful for the Government, in the regulations prescribed under this amendment, to prescribe that plain packaging might well and could properly include, in small lettering, the product name, the manufacturer name and the trademark, so long as that plain packet also showed "Smoking kills"? We are concerned about the development of extremely gaudy packaging that is so compelling for young people when they see these displays in shops.
