The harm caused by smoking is well known. Our view on the future is clear.
We believe people should stop smoking, and we support measures to dissuade people from starting.
That said, people who continue to use cigarettes deserve a better choice. They should be able to switch to alternatives that are likely to be less harmful than continuing to smoke.
