PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
GLOBAL RULES ON TOBACCO MARKETING (25 November 1998)

Motion Details

That this House is deeply concerned that tobacco companies are aggressively targeting women and children in the Third World with marketing tactics which are being banned in Europe; is concerned that the projected number of deaths from smoking-related diseases in the Third World will rise from one million per year to seven million per year by the year 2030; notes the European Union directive banning tobacco advertising, sponsorship and promotion; and believes that the Government should include a firm commitment to global standards on the marketing of tobacco in the forthcoming White Paper on Tobacco so that the same basic rules apply to tobacco companies wherever they operate.
